Waitlist C/O 2027

Veterinary Science Graduate Certificate from UofI
This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I got accepted into western and accepted my seat. I am also waitlisted into LMU. While I love both schools, I would choose LMU due to lower cost of living. Im lucky to get an acceptance at all! I hope we all get the news we hear soon!

Has anyone received an OOS waitlist update from Wisconsin? And would it be inappropriate to call them today asking if an email will be sent?

Just letting people know that I called Tufts and asked if the class was full and they said that right after the April 17 deadline they called some off the waitlist and asked if they were interested and then accepted them. She said the first wave has until May 1st to respond, and if they don’t all say yes then they may accept more from the waitlist to fill the class

Following up on my Wisconsin OOS waitlist post: I called this afternoon. I am not 100% sure if they are planning on sending out an email with updated waitlist rankings, but I was able to ask my current ranking and she looked that up while on the phone. OOS has only moved up 10 at this point...but it sounds like they are just starting to pull people off the alternate list, so still holding out hope.

my daughter rescinded her seat at Miss State (SC contract). So someone should be getting a call!
 
Any movement on the Texas A&M waitlist?

I called A&M today out of curiosity- they said they've handed out some waitlist acceptances, but the final class isn't finalized.

Hello, I’m on the waitlist for two schools and I am currently Existential crisis and panic attack. My plan was to always become a veterinarian, so I never had a back up plan. It was all I have ever wanted to do, but what If I am not fortunate enough to get pulled from either waitlist. What then? Do I reapply for a third time and hope that I will be selected? For reference I have a 3.55 gpa, 3.67 last 48 hour gpa, 3000+ shadowing hours, worked at vet offices ranging from small animal to live stock for 9 years, actively helping with rescuing and rehoming animals, and even did an internship at a local animal sanctuary….. I don’t know what else I can do to improve my application when applicants with 3.8 GPAs are being rejected too. I am currently a vet tech, but vet techs barely make $17 which isn’t livable. Do I chose a different career path? Someone please give me some guidance as to what to do in the event that I’m not accepted. Please help me

Hey! i’m having the same feeling rn, but I did talk to someone UofA and did a file review. They had some comments about my personal statement and letters of rec, which seemed to be the biggest issue for them. So it might not just be gpa and experience sometimes. just a thought!

Would advise you to make a WAMC to improve visibility of this and provide more info to people looking at this.

Initial thoughts: GPA is not a complete killer, so long as you apply to holistic schools and have the breadth of experience to back up your app. If you are applying holistically, problem could be LoRs, interviews, and essays. Take advantage of file reviews. Last, by the third cycle I do think you need to be serious about planning/thinking for what you will do if you never get in.
