no way, did you call and ask ?145 acceptances for 120 seats. 150 on waitlist
how do you know this information?? why do they always over accept that’s so annoying
It was relayed to me from current students from their newsletterno way, did you call and ask ?

Most likely it won't happen, though I do wonder what would happen if all accepted their seats. If I had to guess though, realistically very many people won't get taken off the waitlist. Still though, it is an achievement to get onto the waitlist knowing now that only 295 really get offered acceptances/alternateWhat happens if all accept seats? Or is there no chance that happens
Thank you for all the answers!! Do you know if WesternU has any connections with any of the zoos around the area? Basically like how CSU has a relationship with the Denver Zoo and can send students there or how U of F has a relationship with Disney World's Animal Kingdom. Thanks in advance!!I can do my best to answer for you!
1) Our professor for zoo/exotic is amazing! He has great connections and is able to really do a lot for you. We also have a zoo med club that helps with experiences etc. He used to work at the LA zoo!
2) we don't plan to turn it into a full teaching hospital because then we'd need to add a million internists which is very pricy. Keeping as is let's the school keep tuition down (I know it's already high). You do get to rotate through the hospital your 1,2 and 3 rd year!

Unfortunately not close ones, but you do have to rotate during your third year through a zoo so they typically send you to Oregon or Ohio, it's something that's already in your tuition. I know the LA zoo doesn't do a rotation anymore and the San Diego zoo is already a hot commodity so they don't give automatic rotations, you have to apply.Thank you for all the answers!!

Just got my decision just now look at ur portal!It’s still radio silence for me, I’m going to assume I’ve been rejected
I got my decision on 3/16. Waitlisted.Just got my decision just now look at ur portal!
I've come to the conclusion they do not check their e-mails lol. I sent one a week ago as well and no response.Hi guys!! I’ve decided to withdraw from the waitlist to attend another school I was accepted to due to the opportunities that I would have there based on what I want to specialize in and just the fact that I personally didn't really vibe with Pomona/campus when I visited. With that being said, there usually is a link for withdrawing your app and I can't seem to find it on the portal anymore. Does anyone know how one would go about withdrawing? I know emailing is an option, but I'm guessing that they've been busy responding to other emails as they haven't responded to a previous email that I sent a few weeks ago. Has anyone gone through the process of withdrawing their app?
Best of luck to everyone, and I hope that everyone gets an opportunity to go to vet school this year!! We're all going to be amazing vets!
The entire school was closed last week. Spring break.I've come to the conclusion they do not check their e-mails lol. I sent one a week ago as well and no response.

…I get responses in 10-15 mins usually, with three different advisors. Amity, Alberto, and Tonisha have all been very responsive. Alberto even responds outside of business hours.it’s not like they don’t also have a history of being poor on the communication end of things hahaha
... well those advisors aren't listed in my portal and my advisor has gone mute...…I get responses in 10-15 mins usually, with three different advisors. Amity, Alberto, and Tonisha have all been very responsive. Alberto even responds outside of business hours.
I don’t think I’m the one being passive aggressive here, but I will be completely direct with you. Y’all are the ones complaining about a school that you have no experience of, all while you would beg to get into it. You have no experience to say how involved the admissions department is with the enrolled students (it’s a lot). You have no clue how many emails they have to respond to that actually matter beyond someone being impatient for a spot to open up or wanting to know when decisions will be posted, like the 100+ accepted students that now need assistance with financial aid, updated vaccines, health insurance, etc. The excess emails just make the wait longer. If their “history of bad communication” is bugging you enough, go to another school if you have the option. Getting the opportunity to even be considered for ANY program, with only 32 in the world, is a huge deal and shows that you are on an upward trend of accomplishments in your life. Stop making it miserable and learn to love the process. For the past X years and the future Y years, you have been slowly crafting yourself into the doctor that you want to be for your future patients. You are going to get paid for a lifetime of saving puppies, there isn’t a more fulfilling position to be in. With Western, PBL is very self-starting reliant to find your own answer. If coming to the board to complain about not receiving an answer is your first move, rather than looking for why you aren’t receiving one yet, the transition to PBL might be very difficult. Yes this is a temporary moment of high stress, but we are all going to look back at this during our white coat ceremony and feel dumb for torturing ourselves like this.... well those advisors aren't listed in my portal and my advisor has gone mute... what's the point in being so passive aggressive?
Hi! Someone told me about this post and I wanted to come on here and try to be helpful. I am the student that went from being a 2nd year to restarting the entire progam. There were a lot of factors that played into my situation including some medical issues and online schooling. That being said faculty was actually extremely supportive and helpful. I am so grateful to them and everything they continue to do. The decision to make me repeat was made by the dean at the time. We now have a different dean, I am not sure how he would have handled my situation; but again, my situation was very unique.I heard that this situation might have just happened at WesternU. One of the current first years was made to restart after completing the last block of year two.
Hey all! I will be denying my alternate seat, as I have accepted a seat somewhere else! Good luck!!
Thank you!! 🤗congratulations!! happy for you!
i just got an email saying my parents income information is missing from my FAFSA and i have to update it by midnight April 8. i logged onto my FAFSA and the information is there but i won’t be able to contact anybody until monday which is too lateI submitted the trustee scholarship on Monday and never received a confirmation, did anybody? The scholarship information was removed from my status page as soon as I submitted, I just wanted to make sure no additional confirmation was needed.
I’m sure if it is there and you email back before the deadline they should be able to fix it? I got the same email but I had not included my parents in my fasfa so I will be updating mine today.i just got an email saying my parents income information is missing from my FAFSA and i have to update it by midnight April 8. i logged onto my FAFSA and the information is there but i won’t be able to contact anybody until monday which is too late

no :/ i try to call but no one answersHas anyone heard about any waitlist movement yet? How much does it typically move?
as in 59 students accepted their offer ?So I'm not not 100% how accurate this is but right now it looks like 59 people on the 2027 email list. AGAIN idk how accurate it is but I hope this kind of calms any nervous
It's 59 students who has an email associated with DVM 2027, I'm not 100% if it means accepted but that my guess! I'm not sure if they have updated since this weekend. I just can't truly confirm anything for you all since I don't work for the schoolas in 59 students accepted their offer ?
