Kansas

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Congrats RubyJoe! Will they tell you where you are on the list if you call? Im not familiar with that school protocal?

No, I'm pretty sure Kansas State is one of the ones with the policy on not telling people where they stand on the alternate list. RubyJoe, if it helps any, I know that based off of the stats from last year, by the time the class was full, approximately 70% of the OOS people who interviewed had been offered admissions. So there's definitely still hope!

Here's hoping good news comes to all of us tomorrow!! :scared:
 
You guys have me nervous all over again! Good luck! I hope you ALL will be my future classmates! 😀
 
Thanks Everyone! I'm gonna call K-State first thing this morning and just check to see if they'll let me know my number in line. good luck to all of those that are still waiting!!!
 
Congrats, RubyJoe!! I've got a good feeling!!! :luck: 🙂

And GOOD LUCK to the rest of you Kansas hopefuls--I'm on pins and needles for you all and will be checking the board obsessively!!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂 :luck: :luck: :luck:

You know you're a crazy vet school applicant when.... you tape a note to your mailbox asking the mailman to buzz your apartment when the mail comes because you're expecting news from vet schools!

Yep. That makes me crazy! 🙂
 
I might be crazy, but I'M GOING TO VET SCHOOL!!!!!!! 😀😀😀

LOLOLOLOLOLOL Hey Shuvball that would make a great thread.

How about this one...when you sit on the SDN all day just hoping someone posts that your schools results are in the mail and heading your way.
 
And now I'm just going to sit here at work, trying to focus while telling myself that I should keep working because my mail doesn't usually come until ~ 5 anyway...

Amen, brother/sister!! Focusing is becoming much, much harder...

Welcome and congrats, Bently!! Where else have you applied?
 
I applied to Iowa and had an interview there. Also Florida and Michigan but haven't heard anything yet. I've already been rejected from Cornell and Missouri. But I dont care anymore I'm thrilled to go to Kansas !!!!
 
Just started looking through these forums...I love it!
I got an acceptance big envelope (didn't know they actually did that) on Feb 4th and the envelope is postmarked Jan 31st.
 
Accepted!!!!!!! Large manila envelope if you're curious 🙂

Woo hoo!!!!!!!!

Congrats RockStar!!! I am so happy for you! Hope to see you here in the fall.🙂
 
congratulations to all those who have received acceptances to K-State!!! work has been taking up all of my "forum stalking" time since my facility came up positive for a mouse virus last monday. so, i don't think i wrote tell you all how excited I am for you!
anyways i talked with K-state about my position on the waitlist, they didn't tell me exactly, but i will need a small miracle to get in. all i can do is hope!!!

btw...7,000 mouse records later, i think i am closing in on the culprit of the nasty virus!!!
 
I'll keep my fingers and toes crossed for you, RubyJoe!!
 
thanks rockstar!!!!!!!!!!😀
 
I'm seeking a third female roommate for my house (3 bedroom, 1.5 bath) here in Manhattan; it's one mile from school (easy bike ride, or nice walk) to share with myself and a fellow classmate. It's a small bedroom but I have a large kitchen, nice size living room, large backyard, ample driveway space, and garage we use for storage.

I'd consider someone with a pet - I'd rather not - it depends (Shepherd and two cats here currently). Rent's $375/month + 1/3 utilities.

Message me if you're interested or want to hear more, etc. 🙂
 
Im lookin for a house to rent w/ my boyfriend. I would love to live with other first years, or a couple or whatever as well.. I really want to live with classmates to study together and get to know everyone!! so if anyone has any ideas let me know!! We r both very easy to live with !! lol :hardy: Let me know if anyone wants more info!! Thanx!

I am a little late posting, but I figured that I would join the excitment! I got my acceptance letter Feb. 4. I really enjoyed my trip to Kansas for the interview and still have a great feeling about it. Its looking more and more like that is where I will end up based on recent letters in the mail (Alternate interview for Florida and Alternate for Auburn). Thats ok though because I loved Kasas and so did my girlfriend! Congrats everyone.
 
Im still searching in other threads for this info but I have a question.
KSU website says their pre-reqs include

Humanities and/or social sciences 12 credits
Electives 9 credits

What determines which humanity/ SS/ electives they use for their calculation? Their supplemental app doesnt ask for which courses you want applied to these requirements. Im just trying to figure out what my KSU GPA would be since its what they use to decide who gets interviews! Do they try and select the courses that will give you the highest average or do they select the first courses they come to on your transcripts? I probably need to call the school but I was just wondering if anyone knew the answer.

Edit: Okay, now Im really confused bc the KSU catalog says they only use the reqd. Science courses to decide pre-req GPA. Can anyone clue me in?

hmm... I know on the supplemental app that they ask for your last 45 unit GPA.... I was under the impression that they based interviews on a variety of factors that included the GRE, overall GPA, sci GPA, last 45 unit GPA, experience, etcetera...? But I never did any research to find out how they determined if you would get an interview or not..

Sorry I'm not much help! I would just call the school tomorrow morning and ask. GOOD LUCK in your app cycle this year! 🙂
 
Thanks adOggy...the KSU catalog states

The raw application score for each candidate is currently derived as follows:

GPA (35 hours of required science courses)30%

Graduate Record Examination40% (YIKES!)

Interview and Application30%

But I will call and get clarification and then post an update.
 
Randomly, my interpretation would be that it is required to have said humanities, etc classes to matriculate, but for GPA they only use the required science courses, not the required humanities, etc courses. But, of course, calling is always most appropriate.
 
Hi everyone, I got a call today! I was on the alternate list and I got in!!! I am so excited!!!
 
:hardy::hardy: Congratulations Kat!!! I'm super excited for you!😀
