I got the call today!! I'm am so excited! Good luck to waitlisters and those still waiting to hear!
So, I am guessing nothing today? Crossing my fingers and hoping for some sort of good news tomorrow.
I still haven't heard anything which makes me super nervous. Hope for our sake she still has some good news to give out. I felt like my interview here went very well. I guess we will know today or tomorrow. Good luck!Have you not heard anything, either? I'm still waiting on any sort of notification from them...it seems like everyone else has heard something already!
I emailed Missy Monday but she did not reply. I am really curious what number I am but I also don't want
to bother her. Did you hear back from her?
Finally received my waitlist status. I guess they do not reveal actual numbers. She just told me I am the top 25% on the waitlist. Anyone else hear about waitlist numbers?
I have some hope I will hear soon about my spot on the alternate list! Odd they won't give out exact numbers though.Well I was emailed last monday about being placed on the waitlist. But it wasnt until today she emailed me about my position on it.
You are correct. They do not reveal actual numbers...just relative positions. Missy is a really busy person, so if she doesn't get back to you, don't freak out! You can always call instead of email. That's a much faster way to get in touch, and it's always worked better for me.Finally received my waitlist status. I guess they do not reveal actual numbers.
I still have yet to hear anything, even after e-mailing Missy.Has anyone else not heard anything?
Well, first of all, do you all have a Facebook group yet? If not, someone should start one. If so, join that. From there, upperclassmen will join and share the housing that they are moving out of. That's the best place to start, and that's how I found my place. There are already a good many seniors trying to find replacements for when they move. Next, join the vet student buy/sell/trade group. If you are friends with a current student on fb, they should be able to add you. If not, send me a PM, and I'll find a way to get you in it. Advice I have: Avoid undergraduate housing!@TwistedRose
Any advice on searching for housing?
I still have yet to hear anything, even after e-mailing Missy.
In past years, I've had the most luck calling Missy multiple times to talk to her directly rather than just relying on a message. You'll get through eventually. I'm not sure why it would be taking her so long to get back you to you, so I can't help you there (unless she is really backed-up on returning emails/calls - it is that time when she receives a lot of calls/emails regarding admission decisions, and there is much more to her job than answering those).I still haven't heard anything yet. I called her two weeks ago, left a message, and sent a follow up email. Called her again this week, left a message, and still no response. I'm kind of disappointed about this. I realize she is a busy person, but unsure of why it is taking so long.
I finally heard something via snail mail. Still no response from Missy personally, but I never tried calling. I would try calling again...I still haven't heard anything yet.

I haven't heard anything more, no! Good luck, though!Have you heard regarding your place in the waitlist? That's what I'm trying to figure out and I've reached out numerous times. I guess I'll try calling again today.
I'll be there! Well, it's sort of mandatory for us to be there, but we have a bunch of cool stuff planned. Our Spring semester ends around May 12th I believe.Is anyone going to the open house on April 4? I'm so excited to start in June! Speaking of which... can anyone tell me when the Spring semester ends?
I just got my waitlist status today. Does anyone have an idea how many total OOS are on the waitlist?Have you heard regarding your place in the waitlist? That's what I'm trying to figure out and I've reached out numerous times. I guess I'll try calling again today.
You will want a group eventually and not a page, but that will at least give the current students a chance to communicate with you all. I think we also had one at some point. There have been a ton of posts about apartments on the other groups lately.I looked for a fb page and didn't find one, so I made one! https://www.facebook.com/msstatecvm2018

Usually you all will have an open group at first, and a bunch of accepted students and current students join. Then, once you've started class and have things figured out, you'll usually kick out the majority of the current students and make the group closed. At least, that's how ours worked (and the class above us).
That's one way to do it. If you make the group open initially, people will be able to search for it and join. Feel free to send me a PM, and you can add me as a friend if you need "friends" to invite in order to form a group.I'm trying to make a group as well so we can all start meeting, but I have to invite people to it to make it... Once people start posting on the page I guess we can friend each other and make a group?
First of all, congrats! I was told two weeks for a decision, and I believe the deposit is $500 but don't quote me on that one.Missy tried calling me today but I was working. She wanted to offer me a seat. Does anyone know how long once they accept you, you have to accept their offer? Also, do they have a deposit? Ive been accepted to multiple schools and I have no idea where I want to go!
Yes the deposit is $500First of all, congrats! I was told two weeks for a decision, and I believe the deposit is $500 but don't quote me on that one.
It's passed the deadline, so didn't you already send in a deposit somewhere? I was having the same problem deciding and ended up choosing MSU because I was offered a contract seat (the 2 and 2 curriculum was also a huge pro). So, in my opinion (and many others who are students and veterinarians), I would go to my IS if that is an option.Missy tried calling me today but I was working. She wanted to offer me a seat.

Can anyone in the know comment on student colors for scrubs and coveralls? We're trying to get a gift for someone going to Mississippi and we know there is a dress code, but we weren't sure what the scrubs and coveralls requirements were. Thanks!
