    About University of Vermont

    University of Vermont is a mid-sized public university in Burlington, VT, in a city setting.

    What University of Vermont looks for

    University of Vermont admits the majority of applicants who meet its baseline academic profile. For most students applying here, the work is in writing applications that reflect real fit rather than treating the application as a checklist. Demonstrated interest matters more here than at the most selective schools. Visiting, attending an info session, and asking real questions of admissions all move the needle.

    Frequently asked

    • What SAT score do I need for University of Vermont?

      University of Vermont's middle 50% SAT range is 1290 to 1440. A score in or above that band keeps you in the conversation; below it, the rest of your application has to do more work.

    • What ACT score do I need for University of Vermont?

      Middle 50% ACT range is 30 to 32. The top of that range or above is what most admitted students submit when they choose to send a score.

    • What is the acceptance rate at University of Vermont?

      University of Vermont admits roughly 65% of applicants. An acceptance rate above 40% means a strong application can land here without high-end stats.

    • What does University of Vermont actually cost after financial aid?

      Average net cost (after institutional aid) is about $19,343 per year. Net cost varies enormously by family income; run the school's net price calculator for an estimate that reflects your situation.

    • Is University of Vermont a reach, match, or safety for me?

      Compare your stats to the middle 50% above. If you are at or below the 25th percentile, treat University of Vermont as a reach. If you are in the middle 50%, it is a match. Above the 75th percentile and the school accepts above 25% overall, it is closer to a safety. Selectivity below 20% should be treated as a reach for everyone, period.
