LMU 2024-2025 (c/o 2029 hopefuls)

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Are we getting the sense that they’re not pulling that many people from the waitlist at a time? I know not everyone is on SDN and what not but still

Yes, I feel like it’s small batches versus big waves. Hoping we hear more come tomorrow since the first deadline is then.
 
I was pulled off of the waitlist yesterday around 12:00 PM EST, the deadline for me to accept is May 23rd. Also would someone please be able to repost the discord link?
 
I got off the waitlist at 7:20 PST this morning. I don’t know if I will be taking it yet as I wait for Utah, but I have until may 26!
 


Join the waitlist discord!!

Would you be able to repost a link to this please, the discord invite is expired.
 
Working on my LMU app now, Im a second time applicant but I didnt apply to LMU last year. I'm shooting for Spring 2026, but open to fall or even the new opcvm as that would be instate for me. Im filling out their supplements now and there are the simple questions such as:
What are your plans following the completion of your DVM degree?
and
Where do you intend to practice veterinary medicine?

How should I approach these? I want to be specific and say my goal is food animal/ public health but as someone not in veterinary school I do not know if I should be specific to what area I want to practice in. Thoughts?
 
I was accepted off the waitlist for fall semester about 20 minutes ago. I plan to ask the admissions team, but does anyone know if they will defer an acceptance to the spring semester? I already signed another lease and extended my master's graduation because I didn't think I would be getting in :,)
 
Also accepted off the waitlist this morning!

I would imagine you could only defer fall semester to fall semester. From what I’ve seen, I don’t believe you can defer from fall to spring, but doesn’t hurt to ask!
 
Does anyone know the start date of classes or the orientation date for fall cohort? Idk if I missed anything in my email but I don’t think they told us 😅
 
Not going to lie. I’ve been stalking these forums at least 10 times a day even though I know decisions come out Friday

I am unsure when your class’ orientation date is, but Fall classes for all semesters start August 4, 2025.
They will send you a welcome package in the mail and I believe that gave us more specific information.

I was very honest and told them what areas of medicine I was interested in, and the exact cities I was even considering living/practicing in. Our school emphasizes the desire to give back to rural communities like those in Appalachia where the TN campus is located, but my answers didn’t include that at all and they still accepted me. I would just be true to yourself and maybe include that you are open to other things as you learn more in the field.

I actually want to aim for those communities lol, Im gonna tell them Im open to wherever I want to practice but my mission has always been to aim for those communities since my hometown is full of them.
 
Anyone else hear anything lately? I’m thinking I’ll be applying for the spring semester just in case as it’s starting to get later and later:/
 
I was taken off the waitlist yesterday! If anyone needs a roommate please message me!!!
