2023/24 University of Vermont undergraduate admissions viewbook

UVM

An experience like no other.

College is a time to explore, learn, prepare for a career, and discover what you love and what you can do when you team up with others who share your curiosity and passions.

We believe the University of Vermont is the best place for you to have your complete college adventure.

UVM faculty are experts finding solutions to some of the world's most pressing health, environmental, and societal challenges— they will, above all, be your professors. Some of the brightest, most innovative students will be your classmates and friends. The resources, partnerships, and network of a major research university will be yours to tap daily; so will Lake Champlain, the Green Mountains, and the beauty and bustle of Burlington.

TURN THE PAGE. And imagine the next chapter of your life.

In the next few years, your life will look a lot different than it does now, and that’s the best news ever.

UVM is in a city—but we have a big backyard.

WHY UVM, WHY NOT UVT? It comes from our Latin name U niversitas V iridis M ontis , "University of the Green Mountains."

ALL THINGS HAVE A PLACE IN OUR

Academic Ecosystem

THE CAMPUS Home to 11,326 undergraduates from 48 states and 37 countries; 1,660 graduate students; 483 medical students; and 1,768 faculty. UVM has innovative labs, a historic green with tall trees, something interesting happening in every corner—what college should look like. THE CLASSROOM 40% of our classes have fewer than 20 students; that means more face-time with your professors. THE CITY OF BURLINGTON

Think of the University of Vermont as an academic ecosystem, made up of smaller ecosystems. A balanced whole as amazing as its parts.

is ranked one of "America's Best College Towns" for its food, arts, music, innovation, and recreation. THE MOUNTAINS Stowe, Sugarbush, Smugglers' Notch, and Bolton are just an hour from campus; the Adirondacks beckon to the west; plus, you might hike Mount Mansfield, Vermont's highest peak, during TREK, our first-year team-building experience. THE LAKE Lake Champlain is one of our most useful—and beautiful—classrooms.

The Campus

The Mountains

Answering the world’s questions gets us up in the morning.

At UVM, there’s always an opportunity to do groundbreaking research that helps humankind. Just ask biology major Doran Forahar, who wanted experience with biomedical research. He found the perfect opportunity in the UVM Larner College of Medicine's Anesthesiology Department, investigating the effects of major surgical stress on the developing brain. His work introduced him to the microtome—a tool that delicately slices tissue just 7-micrometers thin. Every day opens up new discoveries, and new questions.

40 perc ent of UVM seniors report they have engaged in faculty-mentored research.

THAT, AND THE MAPLE SYRUP AND MOUNTAIN VIEWS.

STUDENT S ARE THE HEART OF OUR HEART.

Community is priority at UVM. It’s common to see students of all backgrounds enjoying Shabbat dinner at Hillel or a Comida Para la Gente feast with Alianza Latinx, attending the Black Student Union's fashion show or gearing up for adventure with the UVM Outing Club. We aspire to be a community that values Respect, Integrity, Innovation, Openness, Justice, and Responsibility. This is Our Common Ground.

For many, connections begin in our Residential Learning Communities, matching students' campus home to their interests. Choose from:

The future of robots is humans.

“ASK ME ANYTHING.”

That’s what Josh Bongard, Professor of Computer Science, said on Reddit during a Science AMA (Ask Me Anything) session. He answered questions about his team’s research on how people and computers together can create complex technology like robots. At UVM, you’ll have access to experts like Professor Bongard all the time—he teaches an undergraduate course on human-computer interaction.

Reddit asked: What could it mean for our future?

JB : I think that the willingness of people to participate and collaborate in online games and research efforts bodes well for the future of education. Many fear that technology in general—and AI, and robotics in particular— will marginalize most of humanity. Personally, I believe that this will not be the case.

PROF. BONGARD'S RESEARCH INCLUDES DEVELOPING ‘XENOBOTS’, PROGRAMMABLE ORGANISMS THAT PROMISE ADVANCES FROM DRUG DELIVERY TO TOXIC WASTE CLEAN-UP. LEARN ABOUT IT AT GO.UVM.EDU/LIVINGROBOTS

“MY LONG-TERM HOPE IS THAT ROBOTS WILL LIKEWISE HELP TO UNLOCK PEOPLE’S CREATIVE POTENTIAL.”

The future of business is humans, too.

94% of graduates are employed or continuing their education within six months of graduating.*

Our culture fosters students who go on to create and manage businesses to address strategic, social, and environmental challenges.

THE PROOF IS IN OUR ALUMNI.

Our mission statement calls on us to “create, evaluate, share, and apply knowledge to prepare students to be accountable leaders who will bring to their work dedication to the global community.”

That’s exactly what we set out to do, daily.

OUR GLOBAL REACH

Study abroad can transform lives and careers. UVM offers opportunities in more than 70 countries—there are options for students of all majors.

Students have global impact with internships at local organizations like Vermont's chapter of the U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants, the Peace and Justice Center, and Council on World Affairs.

Amnesty International, Engineers Without Borders, Engineering World Health, and MEDVIDA are among UVM student organizations with a global focus.

A WORLD OF SUCCESSES AROUND THE WORLD

Our research funding sends students like Alison Chivers to Spain to investigate what genes suppress cancer growth, and Abra Clawson to Nepal to study relationships among identity, place, sound, and religion.

Sasha Fisher, a recent alumna, is putting her self-designed major in human security to work. Her nonprofit, Spark Microgrants, is funding community development projects in African nations. Sasha was chosen as one of twenty Obama Fellows, leaders building better futures around the world.

Students compete internationally and receive travel sponsorship with UVM's Lawrence Debate Union and Grossman School of Business Case Competition Teams.

It’s typical to see a student walking out of their residence hall and straight into our medical center for some hands-on training.

A world-class medical school and teaching hospital right on campus make this kind of experience possible. Students have easy access to teaching methods that are shaping the future of medicine.

On our campus, the doctor is in and ready to teach.

VIVANCO URGES HIS STUDENTS TO EXAMINE DIFFERING FACTS SHAPING HUMAN BELIEFS AND SOCIAL STRUCTURE, AND GAIN “APPRECIATION OF THE FUNDAMENTAL PLURALITY OF THE HUMAN CONDITION.”

Some of our labs don’t appear on a campus map.

The world is our classroom, after all. A great example of this is Marcelle Melosira, our research vessel on Lake Champlain, the nation's largest body of freshwater after the Great Lakes—just a mile from campus.

During a class, students might examine tiny silver trout with their bare hands. Their research contributes to larger studies on replenishing the trout population. After recording findings, they can take in Lake Champlain views. It’s learning at its most scenic, while maintaining the health of an international body of water.

FACULTY AND STUDENTS DO WATER SAMPLING, SEDIMENT CORING, NATIVE TROUT MONITORING, AND MORE ON BOARD OUR RESEARCH VESSEL.

It’s in our nature.

SUSTAINABILITY. For some, it’s little more than a buzzword. At UVM, it’s an ethic core to our character, rooted in Vermont’s tradition of environmentalism, progressive thought, and action. Through education, research, and practice we advance knowledge and application of approaches critical to the health of people and planet. As a student at UVM, principles of sustainability come to life in the courses you take, the buildings where you live and learn, and the commitment you find in our faculty, students, and local community.

WE MEAN GREEN:

#2 Green MBA in the United States, Princeton Review

49% of campus waste is recycled

25% locally resourced food in campus dining halls

Gold-Level Bike Friendly University, League of American Bicyclists

A "Top 20" Green School in the United States, Princeton Review

IN OUR RESEARCH

Melting ice sheets on Greenland, farms across the Northeast, urban planning projects, and new energy development are some of the areas where you’ll find faculty leading research— assisted by undergrads— to unravel sustainability challenges and shape viable solutions, for the world.

IN OUR PRACTICE

Locally sourced materials— from the slate roof to the maple interior trim—are found throughout the Davis Student Center. Next door, the Aiken Center boasts a green roof, both a teaching resource and a best practice. They are two of fourteen buildings on campus that are LEED-certified, denoting environmentally responsible building practices.

IN OUR CURRICULUM

Yes, our Rubenstein School of Environment and Natural Resources, cross-disciplinary Environmental Program, and Gund Institute for Environment are international leaders. But at UVM, sustainability also leaps academic boundaries. Seventy-five percent of UVM departments offer sustainabilityrelated courses, and 100 percent of our undergraduates take at least one sustainability course through our Catamount Core curriculum.

IN OUR ACTIVISM

UVM student voices are strong. Creating and enhancing campus waste recycling programs, ending the sale of bottled water on campus, and divesting from fossil fuel investments are just a few of the sustainability issues where student activism has been pivotal in pushing the university to a higher standard.

There’s an Art and a Science to Humanity.

The school with the largest number of students, faculty, and staff, our College of Arts and Sciences offers a way to combine multiple disciplines with creativity, critical thought, and hands-on experience.

Forty percent of UVM seniors report doing research with a faculty mentor. Our Fellowships, Opportunities & Undergraduate Research office helps students define research interests, connect with inspiring faculty experts, and secure grants to support and their work and share it with others around the world.

UVM's Fleming Museum gives students hands-on experience with collections that span the history of civilization. Students in a Museum Anthropology class put their skills to work in the role of curator, selecting art and objects around a central theme—evocative subjects like "food," "home," and "gender."

Students in UVM's Vermont Legislative Research Service program provide nonpartisan support to Vermont state legislators. They research questions around health, education, and other issues and provide information that helps shape laws enacted in the state capitol.
