UVM GO Community is an early move-in program; when you enroll in UVM GO Community, you get to move into your permanent room three days before the start of New Student Orientation! You also get to meet other incoming students, engage in fun and enriching activities in the Burlington area, and start to feel confident navigating campus. Make early and lasting connections with friends, faculty, and staff before the semester begins!

UVM GO Community offers programs co-designed and led by UVM faculty and Residential Learning staff. Each unique program encourages students to enhance their understanding of a specific theme or topic through hands-on activities, adventures, and site visits. Check out the itinerary below to see how one UVM GO Community group filled their days last year!

Group size is capped at 20 students per program and selected via the UVM GO Community Lottery, which runs from April 6 – May 4, 2026. You’ll find out whether you’ve been accepted into UVM GO Community in mid-May, so you can start planning your arrival!

Specific UVM GO Community Program Placements are determined by a student’s Residential Zone. When you enter the lottery, you can indicate your preferences for the UVM GO programs offered in each zone. If selected in the lottery, you’ll enroll in UVM GO Community in May, and you’ll find out your specific program placement in June, after you learn your housing placement.
