Interview Attire

Body

Most applicants interviewing for medical school choose to wear business attire, such as a business suit. We know that historically applicants have felt that wearing a suit was required (or at least encouraged) during medical school interviews. We have altered our recommended attire for our interviews to business casual, i.e., a blouse or collared shirt. If you prefer wearing a suit, that is acceptable.  

Please contact us at lcom.admissions@med.uvm.edu if you have any questions or concerns about Interview Day. We look forward to meeting you!
