S accepted to Grossman with Trustee Scholarship (14K per year). 3.35 uw at a super rigorous HS well known to UVM, 31 ACT, kick ass essays, light on ECs but heavy on work.
For all those with High stats that were deferred: what I've realized is that they admit students with just around their averages (not above) because they only admit people that they feel are actually likely to attend. its like they're avoiding being someone's safety school. If UVM is a top choice of yours and you were deferred with high stats you should express that your interest is very serious.
Congrats to all! Accepted with Trustee Scholarship. 3.25 unweighted GPA at a very difficult school, 1420 SAT (770 reading/writing, 650 math), very strong essay and recommendations, and a lot of ECs primarily focused on outdoor leadership and medicine.

She was amongst those deferred. She has been admitted to everywhere else she applied but has had little love in terms of merit aid which we need.
i had all the right stats some even above their requirements and still got deferred.. i don't understand how I'm supposed to get into schools if being above their requirements will push them to defer me & being below their requirements will also get me deferred
