For 2025 it was about 800. I'm not sure about last year, but I would guess about the same if not more.

Yeah I heard ~600 last year but I am pretty sure somebody said that on the forums last year, so not sure how accurate it is. They’re probably doing a lot more this year considering they’re welcoming an additional 100 in January.

I marked no interest in the spring class, because I graduate in the spring and would like to hear back from the other schools I applied to. I feel like the January cohort might be a good option for people who have already finished their degree and/or didn’t get in last cycle.
I also marked no because I have one class left for prerequisites. Also I already paid for my next semester of school where I'm at now. This makes me wonder since we already interviewed is there a chance we could here back sometime in Nov/Dec about acceptance for fall classes like they have in past years.
They were approved to accept 100 for the spring cohort and fall will be 125
Even if you marked interested you have the option between Jan or Aug if accepted
For anyone that has been interviewed yet, was the scenario presented to you while you were already in the room with them or before you enter the room? I know it says you have 2 minutes to review the scenario, just wanted to know if they would be staring at us during that time haha. Thanks in advance!
When you’re in the room
Interviewed applicants: Did they say how long before you’d hear back about a decision?
LMU in past years have sent first decisions by Christmas, but with a January class they will have decisions by Nov 7.
So you think if we already interviewed and we put not interested in the Jan class we still could possibly hear back by the 7th.
So, if we haven't interviewed by now, does that mean we're not in consideration for the Spring class?
In an email I got all it says they will be interviewed and reviewed by the 7th but that's all it says.
Hello all! I am a first time OOS- I have not received any notification of interview or denial. I logged into my portal today and it says that my deadline is Nov 30, 2022- any ideas what it is a deadline for?

You have a portal??
The MyLMU thing where you had to pay the supplemental fee- it has status updates on it
I hadn't looked at that portal before but mine says the same thing. I interviewed already and it doesn't have anything on the portal about that, I think they might just be updating via email
It doesn't update, all communications from LMU are by email.
There is a hotel in Cumberland Gap or you can always find something in Middlesboro. It’s where many students live off campus and its like 7-9 min drive to campus. You can also check out Tazwell as it’s about 15-20 mins away.
If your coming to visit the campus look at hotels in middlesboro. The Holiday Inn Express is off the main road in middlesboro and is pretty nice.

For those who have already interviewed, do we have 2 minutes to read the question/jot down notes before we begin speaking? Is it awkward to write out our thoughts???
They give you time to think it over, but personally, I found that I was talking well before that time elapsed. Couldn't tell you the exact restriction. And no, not especially awkward--you'll be too focused on the question for that.
Interview done, now we sit and wait…. :/
How do you think it went?? I have mine Nov 7th and doing just about everything I can think of to prepare 😅
Done with my interview too. Anyone else feel it wasn't the best but not the worst either? Just waiting now, but hopefully we hear back soon!
That's how I felt when I did mine last Monday!

me too! we must have been in the same group!
Very likely nothing--keep in mind that a lot of schools haven't even STARTED interview offers yet
LMU interviews are usually until February. The addition of the spring cohort is making them ramp up interviews but I feel like they will continue to interview until then for fall

We definitely must have been!!! How exciting!!! I’m hoping we hear back by November 7th!
I am
I am potentially.
I read somewhere that the January class will be 100 and the Fall class will be 125
Spring will be less than fall because they were only approved for 100. The fall cohort is 125

For those that have interviewed, are all questions Casper based or do we get to talk to them about personal things like our reasonings for choosing them? Also, did you guys have time to ask questions?

Situational and I personally didn't have time.

that makes me sad, i want to ask questions and get to talk to them like a human being lmao. I did terrible in the casper so i’m doomed hahaha.
I personally felt like I had a decent amount of time to talk to them and have them answer my questions. I really enjoyed the process and am appreciative of this experience.
I had time to ask each interviewer questions about school, after Casper like questions they asked, this way you can show your personality, all people were nice and I didn’t feel any pressure or shortage of time. Good luck.
Like yelenaMV said, I also had time to ask questions and felt like there wasn't too much pressure. What really helps about these interview questions is that they're oriented towards vet med (unlike the Casper), so if you have a good amount of experience, you may find that you've encountered similar situations and will be able to draw from those to answer the questions pretty succinctly, leaving you with some time at the end.
I totally bombed my Casper, but I feel like I did fairly well with the interview - I hope you end up feeling the same!
