When will my OASIS account be activated?
Body

I believe I have completed some pre-matriculation, but why is there still a red 'x'?
Body

For a limited number of items, the red 'x' will not change to indicate that the item is complete until the Office of Admissions verifies that they are complete. These items include official transcripts, technical standards forms, background checks, and the disability insurance form. Be sure to designate a beneficiary on the disability insurance form.
 

Where should I send my final transcripts?
Body

You do not need to submit official transcripts if all your degrees were completed at the time of application. We can verify the conferral of your degree(s) via the AMCAS application.  
 
If your degree was in progress at the time you submitted your AMCAS application, official transcripts are required to confirm the conferral of all degrees before you can matriculate into the Larner College of Medicine. The deadline for receipt of all transcripts is July 1 of your matriculation year. If your degree is conferred after July 1, a letter from the Office of the Registrar confirming your eligibility to graduate is acceptable until official transcripts can be sent. 

Final transcripts should be mailed or emailed to our general inbox (lcom.admissions@med.uvm.edu) if you had any ongoing degrees since submitting your secondary. Please send official transcripts directly from the degree-granting institution to:
