Waitlisted at Kansas (OOS) and Missouri in- state. My Missouri spot is #16. Only panicking a lot. I have no idea how Missouri's waitlist works but #16 doesn't seem good.
Do you mean you were officially waitlisted or were you in "a pool of people that are likely to get off the waitlist since we overaccept OOS students?" At least a few years ago that's what they did to a pool of IS people.To build off this-
Does anyone know how much Missouri's In State waitlist moves? I am waitlisted as In state and was wondering how many spots it normally moves.
Missouri was also a week later on their in state decisions this year, does anyone know if they over accepted OOS and are holding back additional instate acceptances for April 15th?
Thanks so much everyone!
no..... but they close at 5 soooo they've got an hour haha
I guess we have one more day of this stress... ISU is trying to kill us! Alt list number tomorrow I guess...no..... but they close at 5 soooo they've got an hour haha
Just checked my email and got excited because there was a message from them! Said that numbers will be available by tomorrow, so one more day guys...we will survive!I guess we have one more day of this stress... ISU is trying to kill us! Alt list number tomorrow I guess...
Hey vet runner I was waitlisted at Mizzou last year, and I am also waitlisted again this year, last year they didn't give us numbers and when asked said they didn't, rank. Several of my friend were also waitlisted, and as far as I know not many people on the in state waitlist got off. Plus they do not notify us when the class is full, or at least last year they didn't. I'm hopeful for this year cause I am extremely low on the wait list this year.Thanks so much for the response ashgirl!
I am officially waitlisted with a #, but it's fairly high (in the 20's). Seems like a deep waitlist for in state if they weren't expecting movement and was just curious if they were going to move in state like other schools do.
Also do you know if they waitlist every applicant who is in state, or do they send flat out rejections to in state as well?
I don't want false hope, but was just curious if any former in staters who were #'d on the waitlist have gotten in, and how high it went in their specific year.
Cheers!

Thank you! I will! I'm actually ranked first so only one person has to go somewhere else.That's awesome. Hopefully you get a call!
Keep us updated!
Hopefully on monday I'm going to know my number for Virginia, fingers crossed
Yea, really looking forward to it. I wonder why they made us wait until the 10th to ask them about it though... The least they could do for making us wait is have an automated email sent out with it instead of making us ask for it because you know it'll most likely take days to answer everyone.
I was number 6 OOS 3 years ago, and got a call one week before school started. #69 means over half of the class would have to decline. I am sorry, but I will keep my fingers crossed.OOS Alternate for Michigan State....I was feeling okay about this, since I know the OOS waitlist moves quicker. But then I emailed them and they responded back letting me know I was #69 and I feel like that's pretty deep to be making it off.. Does anyone have any idea how much MSU's OOS list moves?
Does anyone have any intel on how far down the OOS penn waitlist usually goes?
If that's the case that's a pretty sweet deals lol. Definitely would not mind another year of saving moneyI was #10 last year and didn't get called with a spot....although I was called and offered a spot in 2021?
Purdue gave me a heart attack this morning because they sent out an email asking for confirmation that I still want to be an alternate but when I first saw an email from them I was like A WEEK EARLY OFF THE WAITLIST???
No.
congraaaats!!!Got called off the Iowa State waitlist today guys! Actually, got called AND emailed. I was #25 on the OOS waitlist, and I will definitely be accepting! I'm so excited!!
I was freaking out too! I'm so ready for this wait to be over!
Found out that Waitlisters at Mizzou should start hearing back middle of this week since deadline has now passed. Fingers crossed we get some good news!
I think most schools will wait until tomorrow to start calling. I'm pretty sure people have until the end of the business/school day to accept or decline their offers.I hope we all start hearing something since today is the final cut off!

Some people want to take all the time they have to weigh their options and figure out where they want to be and what school is best for them. So some people do make their choice very late.Honestly-- do people really wait until the last minute to accept an offer to veterinary school?
Absolutely, some people do. A few schools don't put decisions out (I'm thinking, for example, IS for Mizzou) until very, very close to the deadline. There are also applicants may have been accepted to multiple schools and are weighing their options. It's a huge decision to make.Honestly-- do people really wait until the last minute to accept an offer to veterinary school?
It depends. Some people get multiple offers and have to weigh pros and cons, financial packages, ect. Financial Aid wasn't even scheduled to be released until April 12th at my school. So yeah it might take that entire time to decide.Honestly-- do people really wait until the last minute to accept an offer to veterinary school?

Just got a call from Auburn!! I'm going to be a vet!!!
But as was mentioned above, there are a few schools that put their decisions out very late in the cycle, so not everyone has had months to decide. There are also lots of things in terms of logistics to consider... housing, finances, future debtload, the ability of an SO to find a job in the area if that applies, etc. It's not a decision to be taken lightly. Ultimately, though, it does not matter because the applicants are given the right by the AAVMC/VMCAS agreement to hang onto any acceptances until the deadline if they choose. I know it's frustrating when you are on the waitlist at one or even multiple schools and are waiting to hear back, but that's just the way that it goes and some people do wait until the last day to notify their schools. It's a way to make the process fair for everyone and ensure that applicants aren't spending money in deposits to multiple schools unnecessarily just to secure a spot (this was actually an issue at a school a few years ago... I think it was LMU?).I guess if you ended up with 2-3 acceptances and you weren't really expecting them I could see it becoming an issue though. But you've still had months to decide..don't see how waiting till 5pm monday is really going to help lol

Yayyyyy!! Congratulations to you!!Just got a call from Auburn!! I'm going to be a vet!!!
Congrats!!!!! I still haven't heard anything from auburn did they give you any details like where you were on the waitlist? I am going to be stressing all day
I'm sorry I was a bit of a mess on the phone, I didn't think to ask. They told me I have until Thursday to decide. So I imagine they are sending out the next round of acceptances then
