Also do you mind telling us what dates they’re offering for MMI’s now? Just trying to get an idea about how many more they have. Thanks!

My MMI interview is scheduled on February 12th. There weren't many options; though I believe my MMI interview was the earliest date they had.

At this point I have written them off as a rejection as it has been 3 months since I was put under review. If I hear otherwise it’ll be a pleasant surprise lol.

Yeah, it’s hard not to feel that way at this point. I’ve already started planning for next cycle.

I’m curious how many interview invites they even have left to send out. It took over 2 months for me to even find out I was under review in December so I’m not feeling great about them either. I know they received a ton of applicants this year but there needs to be a better system...

I think the supplemental video apps were a great idea in theory. But I can’t imagine what it must have been like to go through 1500 of them. I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re still reviewing them and just falling behind the timeframe they had originally predicted.

Were there any available dates after that or is that the last interview date available?

I’m curious if they’ll have to extend interviews since it seems they are a touch behind? I wasn’t under review until early December and it seems like they’re just now into those who were approved in November...

I think that they add interview dates as more invites roll out. When I got my invite a few weeks ago, the only options were 2/5 or 2/12, so it looks to me like they just limit each batch to a few dates

My application was confirmed on 12/23 and I just received a rejection email today. So I would say a long wait is good news for those of you waiting! (I’m OOS 1st time applicant for those who are curious!)

I’m sorry to hear that. Hopefully you get some acceptances elsewhere!

For those who have already interviewed back in November would you mind explaining how the MMI ran for you being that it’s online. In the last MMI I participated in you had two minutes to read the question, then went into the room to talk for 6 minutes. So how does it work if you’re online...does the screen go dark and then you get your privacy to compose yourself for the next question as you would in a traditional MMI? Or do you just keep talking to the same interviewer? I guess the traditional MMI scenario isn’t making sense to me since it will be via zoom.

You get like 60 seconds to formulate your question (on the screen) and then the screen changes and you have 7 minutes to answer, if you finish the interviewer may ask additional questions about your answer. It’s all with the same person too!

The interview lasted ~30 minutes and they asked 3 questions! You get put into a breakout room with one evaluator, and you answer all three questions with the same evaluator.

Omg three questions?! That’s spooky, I better not mess up ! So in real life if you answered early and there were no more follow questions you just sat there in awkward silence. Does that’s till happen or to they just turn the screen off. And PS thank you so very much for answering my questions!

No problem!! You can always message me if you have any more questions ☺️ And essentially, yes, but that didn’t happen to me. The evaluator made me feel very comfortable and you’re able to see how much time left you have. I purposely wrapped up my answer with 2-3 minutes left so I could thoroughly answer all follow up questions. I felt like I had to talk pretty fast to actually get my thoughts out! It goes by faster than you think!

Oh thank goodness. I’ve been practicing MMI question that’s I’ve made up and that I’ve found online and I always finish in 3-4 minutes but of course I don’t have my own follow up questions 😂!

I finished early one time and my interviewer had finished asking follow up questions and we still had time so I just asked questions about them and what they enjoyed about the school!

This seems so different than last year. We weren’t allowed to converse with the interviewer outside the questions being asked because it might create bias or some such nonsense. So if you finished early you just had to sit there and smile😂

Had my SA on 10/21. My flagged emails got deleted on accident so I cannot recall if I got an email saying my application was under review. Still have not heard anything yet though. I did email the admissions office asking for any updates on my application. Waiting to hear back from them.

I'm in the same boat and have wrestled back and forth with the idea of emailing them. I mean I guess at this point it can't hurt because my SA was mid September and I still haven't heard anything since the email saying my application was under review. Keep us updated. I will probably email them today as well.

admissions responded to me this morning and said my file is still under review. they also said they are sending out denials and MMI invites every week and that I will have a final decision regarding interviewing by the beginning of February. Hope this helps! keep me posted if you hear anything as well!

Ugh random but I just have so much anxiety in limbo right now! My application was in review on 11/17 and I’m desperately hoping I still have a shot at getting an interview... but I’m so nervous! Vet school is the world to me and I think interviewing would really be a push in the right direction but I’m trying not to get my hopes up in case I’m disappointed. Does anyone have anything they’re doing that’s helping their stress or anxiety? Please and thank you! Hope everyone’s doing okay.

I am in the same boat. I know that there is a very good chance I may not make it in this round. This is obviously upsetting to think about, but what has helped with my anxiety has been to come up with a plan about what I will do if I don’t get in to make my application stronger. I know this may sound more stressful to some people but it helps me because I have formed a plan on how to improve my grades (what classes I’ll retake) and how to diversify my experience. While this certainly doesn’t take all the anxiety away, in some ways it makes me feel better because I know I am in control even if things don’t work out for me this time.
