Does anyone know how many OOS people they accept???
 
Are there any current students out there that actually got a call on the second day? I'm feeling like that is not going to happen for me now.

Absolutely!
And even if you're not accepted this cycle, that doesn't define you as a person and certainly doesn't mean you won't be a veterinarian!

Can you please share your stats and experiences?

Sure!

Overall GPA: 3.9
Science GPA: 3.87
Veterinary Hours: ~700 (All SA)
Animal Hours: ~300 (LA + Avian)
Research: 4 semesters, 1 grant awarded
Cornell undergraduate, so that possibly helps

I'm very worried they're not doing 2 days. Apparently some years it's only 1 day.

It honestly probably depends on the schedules of people making the calls and schedules change. And even if on past threads you don’t see any calls on day 2, don’t forget not everyone knows about SDN to be on here and share
 
Has everyone who’s been getting acceptances been called by a New York area code and have they always left a message?
 
Has anyones portals changed based on acceptance? Mine asks for a deans certification which apparently Is only for accepted students but my phone has been off and I don't know if I've gotten any missed calls (my phone doesn't notify me of missed calls when off for some reason).
Thanks!

Unfortunately the deans certification has always been there so it’s not an indication of acceptance

P sure the certification thingy has always been there
 
I just got a scam caller and I about died sooo not that happy for the hope for a second😡
 
I think about 20-25 people between SDN and Facebook have posted about their acceptances (trying to account for overlap) which is a lot in my opinion for a class of about 100-125 since not everyone posts on these forums. I hate to admit it to myself but I think the calls with be far and few from here. I had really high hopes but I know there’s a chance I can still be waitlisted and eventually get in. I saw a few people post that they have heard from other big schools as well, and at the end of the day they can only choose one, so I’m hoping for those of us who applied elsewhere we all will end up somewhere even if it isn’t Cornell.

If they are vaccinated, and especially if it is Omicron, they are going to be fine.

I’m sorry!! I hope you can find some distractions to ease the stress and I hope your family is okay, that is really stressful.

For now just deep breaths and maybe a cup of tea or hot chocolate??

They’re symptoms aren’t terrible right now at least. And I don’t feel a thing. Im just more worried about an interview with a school on friday after multiple rejections. Im hoping I don’t have any symptoms until at least Friday afternoon😂 if at all.

Take it easy and rest as much as you can. Honestly don’t be afraid to keep water or tea with you if you’re starting to feel eh. And a lot of schools if you find a breakdown of how much the interviews affect you’re “score” or “ranking” it’s usually about 10-15%
 
futurewildlifedoc said:
I just want to say congratulations to everyone who has received an acceptance. To those of us who haven’t, I pray we get waitlisted or find peace with a rejection as there is something better out there, waiting for us. There’s always next cycle as well. ❤️

Yes as torturous as a waitlist will still be a softer blow than a flat-out rejection.

I’m also hopeful that maybe my daughter can potentially be waitlisted since she hasn’t gotten a phone call .

Does anyone here who’s been accepted have a GPA that’s midrange? Seems like Cornell loves the super high GPAs and research….which I do expect since it’s literally CORNELL lol. I just don’t have either so trying to make myself feel better 😂
Click to expand...
I’m not sure what you consider midrange, but I had a 3.7 GPA and NO research but still got OOS accepted 🙂
