Nope! And I applied early September.
Nope, I was waitlisted for an interview the day after I submitted to VMCAS lolAnyone have any recent news of interview invites?
I got the notification that my application was complete on September 28th and haven't heard anything since. I imagine they send out notifications every couple of weeks. Hopefully the next wave is soon!Anyone have any recent news of interview invites?
Congrats! And see you there!!Got an interview invite today while I was at work!! Will be interviewing 10/31 and I am so excited! Hope to see some of you there!
Has anyone been waitlisted? If so, when were you placed on the waitlist?
Anyone know when we're supposed to hear back after interviews?
So I interviewed in October and noticed today that my portal changed and it now has the accepted checklist. Does this for sure mean that Im accepted? I just don't want to tell my family until I'm 100% sure of it. Also how long after noticing this change on the portal did you guys actually hear from admissions?
What day in October did you interview? I interviewed on 10/23, and they mentioned we would hear "by the end of the month", but I still haven't heard and my portal hasn't changed.So I interviewed in October and noticed today that my portal changed and it now has the accepted checklist.

I'll PM you! I'm interviewing with you tomorrow but I interviewed with Midwestern last cycle, too!Can anyone give me some insight as to how the interview at Midwestern was?
Not that I’ve heard of...anyone else get taken off the interview waitlist??
Someone posted their interview experience a few pages back.Can anyone give me some insight as to how the interview at Midwestern was?
Congrats to you!! Good luck with your interview!Interview Email!! Woo Hoo! I submitted 8 minutes before the VCMAS deadline. I wanted every last hour of animal experience and research I could get on the app before I submitted. My application was verified before the end of September. So 30 days from verification to an email invite is great. Most schools have emailed saying the interview cycle will start mid January. One even said Feb and March. So I was pleasantly surprised to get an invitation so early! And super happy I got one in the first place.
I lived in AZ a few years back, so I understand the summers and how expensive it is for AC!! Those electric bills are a shocker if you don't know how to regulate your AC properly. A classmate from out of state got her first electric bill for 800 dollars. She learned the hard way. So just a side note for all of you who may be moving to AZ, if you put your thermostat at 72 it will feel super cold inside compared to the 110 outside. If you put it at like 62-65 your bill will be OUTRAGEOUSLY high. Happy Interviewing all!!
I had my interview yesterday lol it went well I thinkSomeone posted their interview experience a few pages back.
Literally just answered two posts up from yours.Hi all!
So I have an interview with Midwestern University College of Veterinary Medicine in a couple weeks and I am looking for any and all advice I can get!
What are some of the questions you all were asked during your interview?
Has anyone else interviewed at MWU and could message me to give me some extra insight on the process?
Thanks! I look forward to hearing from you!

To be fair, they tried to post in another thread, but I moved it here for them to peruse the current goings on.Literally just answered two posts up from yours.
Yeah let’s just all be nice!!To be fair, they tried to post in another thread, but I moved it here for them to peruse the current goings on.
Can you PM me too please? I have the same question!I'll PM you! I'm interviewing with you tomorrow but I interviewed with Midwestern last cycle, too!
Nope, people just don’t know how to use the search function and it gets old. There’s also a whole section on interview feedback. It gets old when people don’t do their own legwork especially when it’s been answered prior.some people just have nothing better to do and would rather post asinine comments instead of letting others be actually helpful geez..

Saaaammmme
They apparently made a new thread. That’s what says they didn’t already do that.Who says they didn’t already do that?Maybe someone has new information to share from a more recent interview
Fantastic!! I am so glad you feel good about it!!! Yay!!I had my interview yesterday lol it went well I think
Hi!, Well I don't really want to put stats on a thread. I think it is a very unfair thing to do on these forums. It does nothing but make people feel bad about themselves. If their stats are worse or better than the ones they are comparing themselves too and they haven't heard back, it just causes anxiety either way. Don't compare. don't do that to yourself. You are in a very good place. You have not received a rejection letter. so your application is still being considered. That is GREAT NEWS! And they have sent rejection letters out. Grades are a piece, your experiences are a piece, and LOR and you, your answers to the essays... They are looking for a well rounded application. Take a deep breath and enjoy the journey.Congrats to you!! Good luck with your interview!
Do you mind sharing some of your stats? I applied 9/6 and have yet to hear back either way.
Thank you so much!!!Fantastic!! I am so glad you feel good about it!!! Yay!!
Your reasoning is so good I can’t even dispute it lol. I know that knowing others stats just makes things more agonizing, I just can’t help myself. I’m not good at the hurry up and wait thing.Hi!, Well I don't really want to put stats on a thread. I think it is a very unfair thing to do on these forums.
