I'm also an alternate....this is my top choice school and my second time applying, so I'm a little upset that it wasn't an actual invite yet :/

 

[caroline54]

Alternate as well. Anyone have an idea of how many people have made it off the waitlist in the past?

 

[Phoenix21]

Alternate here, too! I'm hoping the fact that they said the waiting list "changes quickly" means that a good number of people on the list get interviews :/

let's hope so!

 

[GoldenGirl28]

I'm an OOS alternate too

 

[torisunshine8]

Wow, so many alternates! I'm glad none of us are alone in this new waiting game haha

 

[Skimble]

I'm an alternate also! They are my #2 school, only after my IS, and I LOVE the sounds of Blacksburg! I really hope I can interview with them!

 

[Meow1374]

Also an alternate!

 

[Skimble]

I was really excited about being an alternate, but now that I see how many of us there are, I'm a little discouraged.

 

[torisunshine8]

I hope people that were offered interviews seriously consider their other offers/interviews they already have if this isn't their top choice school. I couldn't figure out how many alternates were contacted with interviews based on last year's thread :/

 

[SummerTheLynx]

Interview invite for 1/18!

 

[ForTheLoveOfDog]

Well... I got my rejection from Missouri this morning, was bummed out, decided to take a nap, woke up, checked my email, and...

I GOT AN INTERVIEW TO VMRCVM!!! I'm seriously shaking with excitement. OMG.
(Interview is Saturday 1/17!)

 

[akyonder]

Alternate here too. But an alternate isn't a rejection so I'll take it

 

[JakeDVM]

I am an alternate as well. I wish I knew how many people are put on the wait list.

 

[dirtanddog]

Alternate here as well. Super hopeful but simultaneously super discouraged.

 

[plp13]

Alternate as well!!

 

[rd2vetmed]

Just received an interview for 01/18 as well!!!!

 

[plp13]

They had a ton of applicants! So I think you can still me excited!!

 

[ForTheLoveOfDog]

I am an alternate as well. I wish I knew how many people are put on the wait list.

From my understanding, the email I received said that there were about 1,300 applicants. Looking at stats from the c/o 2017 (couldn't find c/o 2018), there were 1,226 applicants with 267 interview invites, so...

 

[ADM1220]

@ForTheLoveOfDog are you IS or OOS? My email said 928 OOS applicants. Just curious.

 

[Kittenette]

I GOT AN INTERVIEW TO VMRCVM!!! I'm seriously shaking with excitement. OMG.
(Interview is Saturday 1/17!)

Similar thing happened to me! Checked my email this afternoon and read the rejection from Missouri...then literally a minute later, I get the interview invite email from VMRCVM. 1/17 as well see you there!!!

 

[Caterpillar]

Alternate interview. I have never heard of interview wait lists... what on earth?

 

[rd2vetmed]

Same thing here! Rejection from Missouri I was so sad, kept on working. Checked my email and saw the interview invite but mine is for 01/18! OMG so excited!!!!!!!1

 

[Griffintohokie18]

Interview invite January 18th.

 

[ForTheLoveOfDog]

@ForTheLoveOfDog are you IS or OOS? My email said 928 OOS applicants. Just curious.

OOS for me. I'm one of them California folk!

 

[SummerTheLynx]

It also said 1300 applicants and I am IS fwiw

 

[haley120892]

Also an alternate...little hope here seeing how many of us there are on the list lol.

 

[plp13]

Wish they would tell us our number on the waitlist!!!

 

[Wiffink]

I am also an OOS interview alternate. I am quite surprised at how many alternates there are. Anyways, congrats to everyone who got an interview invite!

 

[Wyatt'sAunt0903]

alternate here as well. I, however, am VERY surprised I didn't get straight out rejected from VMRCVM. This is a very competitive and great school so I am super pumped and proud of myself for making it this far

 

[1103]

I am an alternate too. Wow a lot but we will see. I do also wanna know how many alternates there are.

 

[stfrancis126]

Another OOS alternate here. Trying not to give myself any false hope, but oh well. I guess it's still better than getting a rejection email right away.

 

[v0712]

OOS alternate too :/

 

[Morpheus3121]

I am on the alternate list as well but I am in state. Any other people in state on the list? Is it a separate list for in state vs out of state?

 

[SummerTheLynx]

I am on the alternate list as well but I am in state. Any other people in state on the list? Is it a separate list for in state vs out of state?

I am pretty sure the answer to that is yes, but am not positive (simply bc there are a designated number of spots for IS vs. OOS)

 

[GoldenGirl28]

Interview invite for 1/18!

Woohoo! Go STL!

 

[GoldenGirl28]

1,300 applicants?! That's insane!

 

[haley120892]

Something tells me that instead of flat out rejecting everyone who wasnt invited to interview, they simply created an alternate interview list.

you don't think anyone has been flat out rejected yet??

 

[GoldenGirl28]

you don't think anyone has been flat out rejected yet??

No, I don't think so. My guess is they're waiting until they have their interview list confirmed, then they'll send out a wave of rejections just before the interview weekend. So for now we're all on the interview alternate list, and clearly that list is huge. But I guess someone's got to be at the very top, so there's still hope...

 

[JPML]

just got an interview for 01/17 ! Any suggestion on how to prep for MMI?

 

[JPML]

Does anyone know how many students are selected after the interview process?

 

[Skimble]

They have sent out some rejections because dirtanddog got one on Tuesday, per his comment towards the bottom of page 1.

[Skimble]

Oops! Sorry! That's what I get for reading on my phone early in the morning!

 

[dirtanddog]

Oops! Sorry! That's what I get for reading on my phone early and the morning!

Story of my life!

 

[haley120892]

Did they do this wait list last year??

 

[orie93]

Rejection from Missouri BUT interview for VMRCVM for Jan 17th!!! Literally shed a tear or two lol this MMI deal is freaking me out though :/ any more in depth descriptions on how it works? Is it live scenarios in which you have to do stuff or just verbal scenarios that you discuss things?

 

[plp13]

Did they do this wait list last year??

Yes from the forum last year ppl were wait listed. Unfortunately though not a lot of people moved on to the interview
