Does anybody know what time we should expect the email?

no idea!! but they sent the email letting us know it would be released on 11/15 in like the afternoon so maybe around the same time? idk

 

[avocado4958]

I looked at last years thread and it seemed to come out at around 1pm!

 

[TgerDg20]

Last year they released interview invites for us around 10 am PST, but I know in previous years it was later in the afternoon so it really depends. Good luck everyone!

 

[ipocylel]

so if you get an invite we should expect it tomorrow, but if you dont we dont hear rejection until the end of november?

To my understanding I think you will hear if you get a rejection or interview tomorrow. At least that's how it seemed to be last year

To the best of my knowledge and experience those who receive interviews and rejections will hear at the same time.

Do you guys see your GPAs when you press "GPA" on the portal? I just noticed I only see my VMCAS science one, my cumulative one says 0.00 and it doesn't show anything for most recent 45. Is this normal? Lol just want to know if there was something wrong with my app

 

[Rodrigue.griselda991]

IS INTERVIEW! Everyone who got rejected please don't fret! This is my 3rd application attempt and finally I was lucky enough to be given an interview. It'll happen with time, I absolutely believe in yall

 

[echo321]

OOS rejection

Am I misunderstanding this, in my rejection it says 1966 people sent in applications but last year 900+ people did? So did the number just double from last year and previous years

 

[misstrawberri]

IS interview invite!!! CRYING TEARS OF JOY!!!!

That's what I saw and thought if it's true, it's one hell of a competition

That’s definitely odd. Mine show my GPAs accurately. Did you check it prior to the supplemental application being due?

 

[sk1911]

OOS got an interview invite, I would like to practice with people!! should i take the day off work for this interview? would it be weird to do my interview during my break lol?

edit: im gonna take a half day

 

[avocado4958]

Honestly I don’t remember I might have but I may have just assumed it was normal? Ugh I’m just hoping that the admissions team were actually able to see my GPAs and stuff before rejecting me. But yeah I should’ve checked everything beforehand

Congratulations on an interview! Do you mind sharing your stats journey?

Don't mind at all! I wont lie I dont have all my stats exactly quantified but I applied to Davis in 2021 - 2023 with rejections in '21 and '22. I personally had a lot of life challenges that gave me some extra barriers to go through as well as working through college so I knew my GPA wasnt going to be perfect. My GPA has relatively stayed the same all 3 applications (Stats for this cycle specifically, Cum: 3.55 Last 45: 3.68 Science: 3.48) I decided to balance out my application with a VARIETY of work/volunteer experiences. I can't give you exact number of hours in each category off the top of my head but I have had experiences working with livestock, small animals (in GP, Urgent Care, and ER settings) wildlife, some lab animal, shelter work, and lots of non animal community service/jobs. I also decided to take that route because I personally have no idea what kind of veterinarian I want to be. I was very honest about that in my applications too. I wanna say that Davis having the new application system of not taking into consideration the GRE REALLY helped my chances a lot. If you wanna go into any specifics totally PM me!
