Do we think that they even sent out enough acceptance letters to fill the fall class? It sure didn’t seem like it. And last I checked the FB group still only has like 30 members. Don’t mind me, just reading into every little thing driving myself crazy!!

It really didn’t seem like it compared to past threads. Kind of interesting in combination with the fact that they set their own deadline for 4/18— like I get that they’re a private school, but so are a decent amount of programs and they all followed the established decision day timeline as far as I know.

I’ll more than likely be accepting a seat at another school so I’ll get off my soapbox, but it just seems like they’d lose out on a ton of people that way as they’ll have already accepted offers from other schools.

Yeah, I'm more than likely accepting my seat to my in state. I was excited about possibly venturing out. Oh well 😬

it does look like around this time in 2023 and 2022 there were multiple "waves" of acceptances that went out within a few days or a week. If offered a seat, I will be almost definitely accepting, though I am waiting on one other school, too. I have my fingers crossed that we hear very soon.
 
There will most likely be other waves of acceptances as other students may originally accept their spot at LMU, but then get off the waitlist for their in-state school a month or two down the line and opt to go there instead.
I have a girl in my class who was offered her spot the week classes started because someone declined their position here last minute. She had to rush to find housing but she made it work and is thriving now!

totally, I just worry about the housing situation as we get closer to classes starting- I have a family and pets etc. I appreciate the chance to go to vet school nonetheless. 😀

I'd recommend keeping an eye on the facebook groups where housing posts just so you have an idea. That will also help you line up something if you are notified later in the year and need to move quick.

Yea I absolutely get the concern.
If I may offer a suggestion, if you are offered a spot without ample time to move-
At the end of August/start of September we get a long weekend with Labor Day off. And as our exams are nearly always on Mondays, that makes it a week without exams.
Totally not ideal but if you needed to make more than one trip to move all of your things down, I would keep that weekend in mind. If you have a spouse or another adult moving with you, you could also stagger the move and have them arrive that weekend instead of at the same time as you.
Hopefully it goes smoothly and you do not need to make plans like that, but just thought I would throw that info out there

thats a great idea. I just have to think about getting my kids enrolled in school, too, though I guess that might not have started yet theoretically.

thank you <3

You should be able to join/browse those groups as a guest.

LMU-CVM Housing Facebook Group.
LMU-DCOM Housing Facebook Group.
Ball Realty Rentals

I know their Admissions Coordinator works a lot with incoming students and maybe useful to contact: [email protected] or you could try getting a hold of some other lmu cvm students
 
Can someone help me out… I got pulled off the waitlist. I was taking o chem 2 this spring but had withdrawn due to many different circumstances. Would it be possible to take an online class now and have it count? Or do you think I can differ until spring? Any help is much appreciated. I want to be happy and excited but rather am feeling that an opportunity presented itself to me and is going to pass me up. 🙁

This would be a question for admissions. I would use the contact above to speak with Ciera and ask this question. I hope everything works out!
 
Do we think they’ll send out more waves of acceptances this week? It feels like all their waves have been so small… at least based off of how many people on this thread reply. I just don’t buy that the class is at capacity yet. Don’t know why their acceptance batches are so small.

They may send out more after the deadline they've given to recently accepted candidates... so maybe beginning of May? But we will never really know lol the best thing to do is keep ourselves busy, check our emails periodically, and hope for the best 🙂

LMU's spring deadline is June 30, 2024. There are online programs that let you take accelerated courses so if you can complete it with whatever grade they require and have the transcript in by then, theoretically yes you can.
