Alright, I'm reviewing my application and going through the instructions as I do so and now I have a question. In regards to "previous applications" the instructions say the following:
"Previous Applications
- If you have previously applied to one or more Colleges of Veterinary Medicine, list all years for which you submitted applications.
- For each application submitted, please select the entering year of the fall semester.
- Report only applications submitted before the current VMCAS application cycle in this section. Please do not report the entering year for the current application cycle (2016) or the entering year for any future application cycles."
So the entering year of the fall semester for the
last application cycle (c/0 2020) would be 2016... so that's the year I put.
However the next line says "Please do not blah blah blah for the the current application cycle (2016)". The inclusion of 2016 in parentheses has me questioning whether I did this right but putting 2016 as my previous application year. If 2016 was the most recent option on there I would feel more confident but for reasons I don't understand they also have 2017 and 2018 as options so clearly I can't just go by what's most recent.
So... did I do this right? Is 2016 the correct year to select for last cycle?
