I'm looking for a roommate and a house in savoy or urbana. I have one dog. I'd love to put in a doggie door. I'd love to live with other dogs, but cannot live with cats. Let me know if you're still looking!

You're going to want to have an unofficial page. It's where you can post questions for your classmates, study guides, group events like the barcrawls, or just complain about something that's annoying you that only your fellow students will understand. Each class has an unofficial and we keep it quiet.
Nothing, tbh. Other classes use it to sell you stuff throughout the year. Official communications don't go through that page. It's more of a way to get you connected to your classmates over the summer. We don't even use ours anymore.
I am! also cannot live with cats and other dogs are fine. a dog door would be great! I'm hoping to purchase a home so I can kinda do whatever I want with the house as long as its within building permits and such.
definitely interested in looking into places with you if you're still looking
I wish you guys luck with any other wait list positions you have!
Also looking for the same--can't do cats but anything else is fine
Umm...why would this be "bogus?" They're not closing anything. They simply have no more seats to offer. That may change depending on if someone gets called off another waitlist or decides not to attend for whatever reason...but for now the class is full. Absolutely nothing bogus about this. If anything, this school did everyone on the list a huge favor by letting them know as soon as they knew the class was full.
Also this. Illinois is a #1 choice for a lot of OOSers, too. The exotics/wildlife draws in a lot of applicants.
Just means that even though here was over accepting, you have tons of people who are so dedicated to the school that they didn't have to even call alternates!
damn, that's disappointing
Also, I signed up to be a big sib to one or two of you! So sorry in advance when you find out your big sib isn't that good at making baked goods or decorating clipboards
Yeah it is a bummer, but I am very proud of my school for letting everyone know in such a timely fashion. I don't remember if they did this for us last year (totally possible that they did and I forgot!). Like someone said earlier, we had 2-3 new additions within two weeks of the first day of class. Don't give up hope by any means, but also get your backup plans in motion.
We recieved an email like this in mid-May last year. For what it's worth, I was offered admission in the second week of July. Just don't anticipate that there will be many offers.
At least someone remembers something about last summer. I don't know if it was because I was in denial at the time, but my memory about vet school related things from March-July is gone
They sent the email last year to me some point in the summer, I remember getting it and knowing that I didn't make it and would be applying again. To the waitlisters, I know it is very unfortunate but I went through it and applied again and made it through my second time
Anything goes, as long as you remain in the realm of common sense/decency.
If they've sent them to you, sure. You won't be matched until midsummer though, I suspect. We've got 3.5 weeks left of class
Yeah not a scandal at all, just bad timing with retirements + people leaving due to better offers/frustration.
Yes, they have Hill's, Purina, and Oxbow if you have exotics. I don't know how to get on the food list though or how much the discount is.
