Is it possible to call and ask them?Does anyone know anything about how many initial acceptances, how many are on the waitlist, how much does the waitlist move type information?
I'd like to know if waiting is at all realistic
Auburn is my 3rd waitlist so I know how it feels! Still have one more school to hear from but I’m anticipating that will be a waitlist too... so nothing but waiting stillI'm on 5 different waitlists (now including Auburn)...Is there a medal for that or something?
Is there anyone that is OOS that was accepted and will be declining your spot? Keep us updated
I am also OOS accepted and will be declining my spot since I got in to my state school as well. Good luck to anyone on the waitlistIs there anyone that is OOS that was accepted and will be declining your spot? Keep us updated
I’m not necessarily sure that’s going to be necessary. I’m sure your school will arrange a Facebook group/ something similar, plus the sheer lack of numbers for Auburn people on SDN who have already been accepted for c/o 2022 is very low, not enough to justify a completely separate thread. I don’t want to come off rude, I think it’ll be a lot less confusing if you’ll keep it in the original applicants thread. At least with the last several years, you find that you hardly use the individual school threads after acceptances and you move to the general 2022 thread (Probably because you see your classmates enough as it is, you definitely don’t want to engage it further socialization online.
)Only oos students have been offered so far. Further students will be offered with wait-list spots opening up and is and KY students. Until a Facebook group by the college is started I felt like it might be a good place to talk about expectations and plans for moving to the Auburn area. I was trying to open up a group where that excitement wouldn't be rubbing it in the faces of people still waiting to hear and junking up this thread.I’m not necessarily sure that’s going to be necessary.

For every other school, accepted students just continue posting in the applicants thread until classes start. Like cdo said, a separate thread isn't really necessary considering the generally small numbers of people that post on here from each class.
(And tbh just clutters the forum)
I was accepted OOS at Auburn last Thursday! First school I was accepted to but still waiting to hear from 3 more schools after interviews. If I do get accepted to any of the other schools I will be giving up my OOS spot at Auburn.Is there anyone that is OOS that was accepted and will be declining your spot? Keep us updated
Hopefully he will tell you SOMETHING but I called Monday and they are locked tight. Wouldn’t reveal how many on the waitlist or how many usually get pulled or anythingTo my fellow waitlisters, I have emailed Tajuan about some waitlist stats like how many there are of us ECT. But still no answer. I'm trying yall

Does anyone know if they wait until April 15th to start moving their waitlist?
IS interviews are March 5-9...So I think they are shifting into IS mode
. I'll probably end up having to accept Auburn's offer and then feel like a jerk for backing out if/when I get an offer from my IS.
Don’t feel like a jerk!!! Accept the spot and then if you get pulled off, tell auburn you’re declining your spot because you got into your in state. You’ll lose a deposit if there is one, but in the long run if your IS is cheaper it won’t matter so muc. SO MANY people do this every year because you want to ensure you go somewhere in the fall. You can always wait until closer to the deadline to accept your auburn spot on the off chance that your IS calls you before the deadline. Congratulations on your acceptance and your waitlist position!!!Does Auburn require a deposit to secure your spot?
I was accepted oos but I am a very high ranking alternate for my IS, which doesn't seem to pull off the waitlist until after April 15
Is the CVM's spring break the same time as the rest of the university?If anyone has any more questions about AUCVM or Auburn in general please ask! I can't rave enough about it!
Yes! Our Spring Break is March 12-16.

Just put everything and anything on your application that will make you stand out, and be confident

So you actually went to Brazil for the research.?

So there IS a waitlist already??? Some of yall have already been put on a waitlist?? Then why did they do late interviews if all the spots Are filled? We are OOSTo my fellow waitlisters, I have emailed Tajuan about some waitlist stats like how many there are of us ECT. But still no answer. I'm trying yall
There is a waitlist for OOS. The late interviews this week are IS and Contract.
nt
Maybe you’re contract and you don’t know it?
We are neither and we had an interview- dk whats going on -but feel like they are jist covering their rear ends and gave everybody an interview- dont forsee ANYONE getting a spot who interviewed this week.!!
But then why would they even bother holding interviews for a couple more OOS people if they’ve already interviewed the rest of them?
We are neither and we had an interview- dk whats going on -heard that ALOT of applications were "mis-coded" and not interviewed when they should have been initially scheduled. Those people were called and given an interview time-ours (OOS) was Tues. (March 6). So maybe this week is KY and IS applications and they just stuck us (OOS) in with the rest.
Exactly.!! I kinda think they are just "covering their butt" but then again if she wasnt good enough to make the cut why waste our time /money/ heartache etc.... I dk its jist a nerve racking time!!!
I dont imagine they will tell you anything - at least not until after April 15th deadline...I guess it is possible that someone could give up their spot as late as the day before classes start. I have heard of that happening before.... so I guess we cant give up hope until then
YES they should have. I saw a post on this thread from someone who said they got pulled from the OOS waitlist in mid Feb- so I feel
