Who's applying, who's heard from them, who's really trying to go?

I got my application status bumped to VIP so hopefully i find out before the 17th, this week would be ideal. It's my #1 choice and the anticipation is killing me. How's everybody vibe with UVM?

If you're paying out of state tuition why not just go out west

my mom doesn't want me more than four hours away and I really don't even know anyone out there. My parents used to live in SoCal though, they banged me into existence there. It'd be nice to get back there some day.

oh those are actually the code words to self destruct my college fund. But seriously I fell in love with UVM and as far as the east goes, what colleges are better for skiing?

I'm applying, but idk if I'll end up going there. Gonna probs go to UMass and party for four years before starting the long, dragging path to retirement. Plus, my tuition there would be free.

Easy as fuck to get into if you have above a 3.0 and 28 on the ACT or 1800 on SAT.

Take it from a current student.

I'm not a high school senior, but as a sophomore here I can 100% vouch for any claim you've heard about UVM being awesome. As far as skiing, you're less than an hour away from some of the best skiing on the east, and UVM has great support for skiing between the Ski and Snowboard Club and the Freeskiing Team.

UVM is a money pit IMO. See some shows yooo, hang out on Pearl St yooo, wanna get high and tour Ben and Jerry's yooo, OMG magic hat has such a cool building.

I dunno that school is just overrated. I've heard enough about it. Burlington is kinda cool but it's just hyped beyond what it is, a Vermont college town/city.

I went to UMaine, paid less, got a solid education, and skied at Sugarloaf--the east's mightiest mountain.

FYI--Champlain, as I recall, is a lot like UVM with a slightly larger bro contingency.

That's because PSU has the reputation all the retarded kids go there. I'm not really sure how deserved that rep is but that's what I hear daily...

Thats fine. It's better than paying 40,000 a year, especially since mommy and daddy don't fund my college experience.

I checked that out too. I called the admissions people and they said I should find out within the next few days. Assuming I get in, should I just wait til im on campus to talk to a coach or is it smart to reach out before then?
