Last year it was done basically on a rolling basis. I believe the first interview requests went out around the 5th, and then got sent out in bursts until the 15th. On the 18th, some people got notified that they were on the interview waitlist, and everyone else received their rejections. No one was rejected until that last day, since they are actively reviewing until then.
Last year there was also an email with the timeline sent out on November 29th, giving the range as Dec 5-15, so I'm not sure why something like that hasn't been sent yet. Maybe that means the whole timeline will be pushed back? Just speculating

Oh that's great information, thank you!! I really hope it isn't pushed back, but that seems to be a theme with all of the schools this year for some reason.
 
I actually called yesterday to ask a different question, but remembered to ask about the timeline at the end.
I was told that interview invites will likely begin to be sent out on Monday, and that people should know by Friday. That said, it wasn't set in stone, and even with a timeline like that last year, the rejections were sent out the following Monday.

What phone number did you use? Because I have called 4 different times, left voicemails and no one has returned my calls
 
Has anyone here heard anything yet? I called to ask something else, and apparently they started sending invites yesterday morning, and will continue through Friday. Rejections will be sent last, but she said everyone should know by Friday. That said, they said the same thing last year, but rejections weren't sent until the following Monday.

Nothing here!

I wish we knew if there was an order, like IS first or small animal..That way we kind of know which day to expect. Or maybe I'm just anxious and crazy 🙂

Nothing here yet, I'm OOS
 
Some schools, like Upenn, send out invites for small animal interested students first because the LA kids take a trip to their other campus together, so their interview day is last!

Oh, did we indicate interest on their application? I don't remember...I'm trying to access a copy of my supplemental application on buckeye link but it doesn't seem like I can. Either way, their LA facility is on campus so I don't think they'd be doing it similarly to Penn.

I can't remember either 🙁 I wish we could still access VMCAS and everything. But I just meant perhaps they have a way to separate things out, those were just examples!
Also OOS and nothing here either.

Email [email protected] and ask for PDF copies!! They respond really quickly. It's good to have them so you can review what you wrote if you get an interview.

Also, OSU doesn't ask you for your preference in the supplemental, and interview invites aren't determined or sent out that way
 
Also, I got an email awhile back saying they would send interview invites starting in early December and continue sending them through January.

Can I ask when you got this and what the subject line was? I just checked my email and never got something from OSU saying this.
 
"Ohio State University College of Veterinary Medicine Application Status" on 9/26 from Sandra Dawkins
Thanks! Weird though, I never got that... I've gotten other communication from them, though, and I know my application is complete. Has anyone else not received this email?

This is what I got and I also received it 9/26. Check your contact information on the portal.

All of my info is correct on my portal, and like I said, I've gotten other communication from them since.
Did you guys submit/get verified early? Because I got an email on 9/26 saying don't worry if you haven't gotten the supplement yet, because they aren't sent if you haven't yet been verified. And I submitted very late
