Requirements & Deadlines
How to Apply | Requirements | Financial Aid | Deadlines
It is easiest and best for international applicants to communicate with our Admissions Office by e-mail, not phone. Please direct your questions to admiss@greenmtn.edu.
When reviewing applications, the Office of Admissions staff is looking for students
who are ready to succeed, ready for new challenges, and who want to contribute to our community. There is no "silver bullet" or test score that will
guarantee your admission to Green Mountain College. There is also no test score
or grade that will guarantee you rejection. Our decision will be based on your complete application.
The best advice for an applicant is, be yourself. Be honest and be open. What do you want to contribute to Green Mountain College? What are your talents in the classroom, in the laboratory, with the pen or paintbrush, or on the playing field? Make sure that your application tells us who you really are.
The admissions process at Green Mountain College is designed to be user friendly.
Selecting a college is a major decision in your life -- there is no sense in
hassling you with red tape. Remember that as you move along through the application,
we are here to help every step of the way.
How to Apply
Applicants are encouraged to apply online.
Green Mountain College is a member of The Common Application. We accept both the paper and electronic applications. The application fee is waived if you submit the electronic application.
You may also apply online through
our web site. The application fee will be waived if you submit your application
online.
If you prefer to mail your application in, you may download the PDF application here. A $30 application fee will be charged. If you wish to request a fee waiver, please contact the Office of Admissions.
Requirements
In order to review an application, the Office of Admissions requires the following items of all international applicants:
- Application for Admission
- Full Record of Secondary School Transcripts
- Full Record of University Transcripts, if applicable
- SAT, ACT, or TOEFL Scores
- One Essay or Personal Statement
- One Letter of Recommendation
- Certificate of Finances
- International Student Financial Aid Application
Until an applicant has submitted each of these requirements, the application will be listed as "incomplete."
Applicants are encouraged to submit supplemental application materials. Supplemental materials provide you the opportunity to showcase special talents, abilities, passions, and awards that may not be reflected in your personal statement or recommendation. Use supplemental materials as an opportunity to demonstrate what you will contribute to the campus community at Green Mountain College.
Supplemental materials may include:
- Additional Letters of Recommendation
- Additional Essays
- Resume of Community Service experience, Work experience, and/or Leadership experience
- Visual or Performing Arts Portfolio
- Class work Portfolio
At any time, you may contact the Office of Admissions to check on the status of your application.
Financial Aid for International Students
Green Mountain College offers generous, but limited, financial aid for international students. Merit scholarships and need-based scholarships are available for international students, but no applicant should expect Green Mountain College to cover the complete costs of tuition, room and board, fees, and books. International students should realistically expect to contribute significantly to the cost of their own education.
To be considered for any scholarships or grants, International Students must complete two forms:
- International Student Financial Aid Application (download)
- Certificate of Finances (download)
Download, complete, and submit these forms with your application, by the priority application deadline for International Students.
Deadlines
Green Mountain College operates on rolling admissions. Applications will be accepted until all available spots in the incoming class are filled. Applicants are strongly encouraged to complete their applications in a timely manner.
