I’m a first time applicant too! So far been waitlisted at 2 schools, so I don’t think the odds are in my favor

Hey, waitlisted is better than flat out rejection!

Very true! Never give up hope!

That’s true, thanks guys haha! I feel like I picked the schools with the latest decision announcements so I’ve just been stuck waiting on an actual acceptance

 

[futuredrj00]

Have y’all been accepted into any other schools?

Accepted to 4 others and waitlisted at 2. If I get into NC State, I'll 100% be going since they offer in state tuition after 1 year. if not, I'll be going to Oklahoma State

2nd time applicant here! I was waitlisted at 3 schools my first try. So far been accepted to 2 schools this time around 🙂

 

[natalietrantham]

I would love to know how many times have y’all applied? This is my first application with them for vet school and from the looks of some past forums…people are on their 3rd application and still not getting accepted 🥲 #nervous

This is my third cycle applying to State (I’m ISS). Last year we didn’t hear back until March 24th. Looks like that’ll be the case this year 🤷🏻‍♀️

From what I’ve seen it’s on their Giving Day which would be March 23rd this year 🥲 I check my emails everyday with hopes the decision will be made early but from the looks of it…Giving Day will be decision day 😩

Last year people were posting that they got OOS results Feb 19 and their giving day was March 24

 

[futurewildlifedoc]

Do you remember the date they extended the transcript deadline to? I can't find that email, but that date would be helpful to gauge when we might hear!

It was 2/22/22.

 

[futurewildlifedoc]

Have y’all been accepted into any other schools?

I have been accepted at UT and waitlisted at Kansas State. Declined my waitlist seat at KSU. NCSU is my dream school so I’m praying for an acceptance.

1st time for me!

Oh I’m IS…but yeah I’ve heard it was different days for IS vs. OOS

It's my dream school also! ❤️ Dr. Harrison is phenomenal! Hopefully OOS will hear back 2 weeks post 2/22, which would be 3/8 (next tuesday).

I thought the extended deadline was 2/15

Congrats on UT acceptance! I’m currently waitlisted there but it’s my #1 school. My husband will be finishing up undergrad there in the fall so I’m praying for a spot there

It was 2/22 per their last email

I’ve heard OOS waitlist moves quite a bit. There’s no rankings. Are you IS or OOS?

 

[Cheezyboi]

I’m OOS! When i talked to Ms. Shepherd she said that the committee just picks people from the list depending on certain factors like diversity or area of interest

 

[DogtorAsh]

I just got an email saying my application has moved to faculty committee review. On that email it said the transcript deadline was moved to 3/4.

Wow, I think this is the most behind I have ever seen them! Probably means we all are not going to hear anything until late late March/the original April 1st deadline.

Seeing an email with the title "Application Status" just about gave me a heart attack haha. I thought it might be a decision.

We might never be notified at this rate 🤣🤣 congrats on moving to committee review!!

 

[squ1rr3lgirl]

Is the transcript deadline for all applicants regardless of IS or OOS?

 

[Cheezyboi]

I wonder if they’re just trying to get everything done and notify OOS at the same time as IS instead of staggering it. Because usually OOS is like 2 weeks before IS, but they won’t make it at this rate

 

[spottedbeedvm]

Yeah it’s shocking they haven’t even started dropping hints yet and it’s March 😬 I wonder if they’ll skip hints this year too. They must be completely slammed.

 

[crazysnakelady]

I'm not at all active on SDN but I'm sending out good vibes to all of you. We're in the home stretch now!

Is Raleigh pretty kid friendly? I’m currently in Knoxville, TN and the crime here is AWFUL. Constant shootings, deaths, etc.
What are some of the burbs within a 30 minute commute to NCSU?

I'm a current undergraduate student living directly beside campus.
If you live further out there are definitely some lovely areas to have a kid and commute in. The area right around the university is very undergraduate student-heavy (and therefore full of apartment complexes that are either brand new and insanely expensive or ancient and still overpriced), and especially in this last year we've had crime increase in a few key "sketchy" areas right around main campus. Shooting, robberies, etc. etc. But overall I would not say I feel unsafe in the city as a whole, and the area directly around the veterinary campus isn't where anything major goes down.
Some of the suburbs are Garner, Apex, Holly Springs, Cary (although Cary at this point is pretty expensive too), Morrisville, Knightdale.

 

[catlady99]

I know I’ve asked before but it’s been a little bit and things have changed. Is there anyone still having not received a committee review email? I’m trying to gauge where NCSU may be at in the process, maybe we’re closer than we think? 🤞🏼

 

[umbrezon]

Anyone heard anything from NC State yet? I received my faculty committee email in January and radio silence since. My anxiety is killing me waiting for decisions 🙁

Nothing yet for me 🙁

I received mine first week of January and haven’t heard anything yet. Well I did receive an email Feb.14stating I needed to update my NC Residency to continue in admissions but that’s it.

 

[umbrezon]

Dang, that sucks. Feels like I haven't seen anyone hear anything back yet. I only know of a girl in one of my classes who told me she got a rejection letter. Seems like we'll be waiting until the April 1st deadline.

I didn’t realize they’ve sent out some rejection letters already? I guess it’s good i havent gotten one

 

[umbrezon]

I think they've mostly probably sent out rejections based on not having admissions requirements - so that's probably the email she got I'd assume.

Yeah since they seem so backlogged on transcripts etc, they probably were still sorting through people who didn't meet all the requirements etc. I wouldn't really take it as a good or bad sign lol.

 

[spottedbeedvm]

Is it April yet? My head is going to explode

 

[mb0049]

@NCSU CVM

 

[dogtoremily]

Any updates as to a more specific day we should hear by?

 

[umbrezon]

Any updates as to a more specific day we should hear by?

I think it’ll likely be either giving day (March 23rd) or the first of April.

 

[nireepoh]

I was looking at past year’s threads and loved all the hints and riddles. I wish we all could have fun trying to figure them out 😢

 

[spottedbeedvm]

I think it’ll likely be either giving day (March 23rd) or the first of April.

Any specific reason you’re thinking giving day?

 

[nireepoh]

Any specific reason you’re thinking giving day?

Pretty sure it was on giving day last year

 

[catlady99]

Pretty sure it was on giving day last year

It was March 24th, the day after giving day

 

[natalietrantham]

I just got a rejection letter lol

 

[cmwells]

If you don’t mind me asking.. were y’all rejected after being sent to committee review? Also OOS or IS?

 

[deleted989551]

I didn't get an email. Are they sending out decisions?

 

[umbrezon]

IS rejection, feeling kind of down on myself rn 🙁

 

[Cheezyboi]

Does this mean they’re sending both IS and OOS today???

 

[catlady99]

IS rejection. Second time applicant.

 

[natalietrantham]

If you don’t mind me asking.. were y’all rejected after being sent to committee review? Also OOS or IS?

I was ISS. Third time applicant after finishing my master’s there this fall. I was sent to committee review back in January.

 

[apm_22]

IS acceptance!

 

[spottedbeedvm]

In-state rejection for a third time. Pretty depressed ngl. At least I have an acceptance somewhere else but would’ve been super nice to not have to move 800 miles away from my family.

 

[deleted989551]

It's Friday 4 pm so they might just be doing IS today.
