You are a real life ROCKSTAR @Falconette85!!!!
Congratulations, so deserved!
Congratulations, so deserved!
Keep rocking it! Congrats!Hello everyone! Here's another update with the readmission process.
As mentioned earlier in this thread, I had to write a letter requesting "Vet Med Special" status for this fall to the Assoc. Dean. My CVM faculty contact also mentioned I had to send it to him by May 15 along with my official transcripts.
Slight problem: my classes through Colorado State and Iowa State were not going to be completed until May 11. So, I asked my CVM faculty contact for advice. They suggested I mention (in the letter) that I am in the process of completing the required prerequisite courses but that I would submit my official transcripts as soon as my classes are completed. Ok! Perfect!
So I have been working on my letter to the Assoc. Dean and wanted a few eyes to look at it. I took my letter over to my undergrad advisor (who has been instrumental during this whole process) and we polished my letter. His question to me was: 'When are you going to submit this? I wouldn't wait on submitting this. If I were you, I would have submit this yesterday. With every passing day, an undergrad (who applied to vet school for the upcoming fall) is competing with you for your seat.' I hadn't thought of that. So I emailed my letter to the Assoc. Dean that night.
Here's what I got back yesterday:

NEVER. GIVE. UP!!!
I want to thank each and every single one of you for believing in me, encouraging me and always being in my corner. I'll continue to keep everyone updated because I'm sure there might be some more hidden steps in completing this process before being 'officially' reinstated as a full-fledged veterinary student.
But again, thank you everyone <3
Way to freakin’ go. You showed so much determination and grit through that insane process. You should be SO proud of yourself. You’re gonna be an awesome vet! Enjoy this huge success! I’m not sure I could have done it...After a long and grueling journey through the re-admission process and jumping through endless hoops...I have something to share with everyone:

You all have been so encouraging and tremendously supportive of my re-admission process and I cannot thank each and every single one of you enough!!!!! I have read all of your posts throughout my journey and every single time, I felt very thankful and blessed. I hope someday we can cross paths in the Vet Med field. The person reading this, yes you! THANK YOU!
To those who are going through or just starting this re-admission journey as well: YOU ARE WORTH IT! You can do this!!!! It can be done and you are strong enough and passionate enough to do it!! You are never alone!! And if you ever need help, have questions or need support with your journey, feel free to reach out ❤️
This is absolutely incredible and I am ecstatic for you! Congratulations on managing to follow through on what I wasn't brave enough to do myself. Your tenacity, resilience, and drive leave me with zero doubt that you will go on to succeed and flourish into a wonderful doctor.After a long and grueling journey through the re-admission process and jumping through endless hoops...I have something to share with everyone:

While @Elkhart will be your best resource/go-to-person, I'll chime in to say that I also failed out of vet school at the end of first year (absolutely also due to anatomy lol). Because Illinois is significantly more forgiving than Iowa, I petitioned to be readmitted and am now going onto third year this fall and will complete vet school in 5 years. Let me know if you need anything as far as emotional support going forward!!! Being one of the few people who repeats can be difficult depending on the circumstances. We're all rooting for you!!!
I am currently trying to go through this process of readmission. How do I start out by asking for a petition? Do I go to the I just went through the same situation and really want to get back to school. I have been polite and patient when asking questions with the office of student affairs, but I feel like it is getting me no where. Any suggestion would be helpful.Hello everyone!
