I think we can assume we're not getting them tonight (ugh). In the c/o 2023 thread they got the emails 10 a.m. on Saturday. I can't imagine they would send them next Friday/Christmas Eve or New Year's Eve when they said early to mid December, so my new hopeful estimate is 10 a.m. tomorrow. If not then I have literally no idea.
 
I was hoping it would be noon but apparently not. Maybe 5 p.m. today? This is the last school I'm waiting to hear from that does interviews and the others have all been rejections so I am very anxious to know whether there's any hope left for this cycle...

I just called and they said decisions are coming out in the next couple of weeks so idk what to do with that information
 
Does that mean there were a **** ton of applicants compared to prior years?? Short staffed?? Idk man
 
It's pretty frustrating that they chose to leave us in limbo (had someone from SDN not called) rather than sending an email that would've taken ten seconds to type. I love Purdue's curriculum and program but annoyed by this.

IS interview! I’ve been rejected the last two years and Kira talent was basically an online scheduling calendar for application feedback appointments. For anyone who is rejected, take advantage for these feedback appointments Purdue offers! An email about that is sent out in April I believe.
 
Sure. I'm not sure if you meant to tag someone who got an interview but I can share mine nonetheless. I can't find where in the heck I downloaded my VMCAS application so these are guesstimates.
I have a bachelor's in English and am almost done with an MS in veterinary medical sciences/shelter medicine concentration.
Overall GPA: 3.88
Graduate GPA: 4.0
Last 45 hour GPA: Uh 3.7ish?
Prereq GPA: Maybe a 3.5 or so... I had tons of AP credit which skews this GPA since those don't count.
Career goals: Behavior, HQHVSN, and general welfare at an animal shelter
Vet experience: About 300 hours split between spay/neuter at my local shelter and veterinary assistant at a small animal practice. No equine, LA, exotic experience.
Animal experience: Over 3000 hours from working at a boarding kennel for 2.5 years, 150 ish general animal care at the local shelter
Special achievements: National Merit Scholarship at my undergrad, KPA CTP (dog training certification), some miscellaneous Spanish things, was secretary of my high school chapter of the NHS
CASPER: 75th-99th quartile
I don't remember what else I put. I've had mental health ~issues~ since I was a preteen so my extracurriculars are very empty and I didn't want to do vet med until a couple years ago so experience hours are very low.
