I finished my application March 31st and submitted my Kira Talent on April 6th.
I actually didn't apply anywhere this cycle and was planning on taking a gap year, so this is my first application! I plan to accept if I get in-state tuition through Nevada.
Congratulations!
NV residents do not have contract seats we are with the OOS pool. I asked about it bc I’m NV
I should've clarified. I just wanted to ask if there have been any OOS seats offered to anyone else asides from those living in NV. I only mention that because based on one of the previous news articles released about USU, it sounds like USU has at least some number of seats set aside for those from NV since they are offering IS tuition to select areas in NV. I just want know if IS and NV residents are the only offers they have been making so far or if there has been an OOS offer made to anyone from another state.

I've been wondering the same thing. I was disappointed to hear that the majority of their OOS seats are going to people from NV.
I think they meant that more NV residents will probably be applying over other schools, so that’ll skew the pool. We aren’t apart of WICHE so it’s our only IS option
Idaho is considering adding spots to Utah, but it would likely be in place of the spots at WSU.
I have discussed this with several state Veterinarians in Idaho, and we do not want to give up seats at WSU. We want seats at both colleges because we do not have enough as it is.
Ok I see what you mean. That makes a lot more sense
I would recommend joining and attending the IVMA meetings. That is where this is being discussed. I think it is ultimately dependent on what funding the state can provide. It will be difficult to convince them to provide funding for additional in-state seats.
I would love any resources! I thought only Vet Students can join the IVMA? I do know that Idaho has been paying the difference in tuition to WSU for all 4 years of out of state tuition for Idaho Residents. Because we can establish residency, the veterinarians I have talked with have said that they should only provide the difference for the first year and that Idaho (Moscow students) should move to Pullman to get in state tuition so the state doesn't have to cover the whole 4 year difference.
That would definitely be an option worth exploring. I went to a meeting that was attached to a CE, but one of the people on the board is not a veterinarian or licensed vet tech and just has a history of work experience in the vet field, so that implies that non-vets can be members. I'm sure if you reached out, they would be able to give you more information on how you can participate.
Ok, thank you for clarifying!
I hope so! Also I feel like if you turned your app in very early your more likely to hear back sooner since it’s rolling
I know they are doing rolling admissions, but I have so much anxiety after all of the waitlists and other decisions this cycle that I just want them to tell us and rip the bandaid off.
Where are you getting this info from?
Have any of the admitted students shared their stats yet? I would be interested to see them.
We are all really excited for you that you got in, but please have the self and social awareness to know how what you post affects the hundreds of people still waiting to hear about their futures. Your comment last week that “they should have made most of their acceptance calls this afternoon” put everyone into a frenzy and caused the admissions office to be bombarded. Please be very specific and positive of the information you are posting on public pages followed by people anxiously waiting for information on their dreams as well.

Rolling just means they review applications as they come in. Does not guarantee an earlier decision unfortunately. Same situation with LMU that is rolling- people submitted in July but still didn’t hear until like January
Ah okay. Thanks for clarifying
It’s so frustrating tho waiting to hear back I totally get it! I think USU also received a lot more applicants than they were anticipating which is making everything take longer
I agree. I think they got sooo much more than they thought they were going to get
They said via email may 23rd is the last day they are accepting new applications not sending out acceptances!
Well at least they have a cutoff for that. I know the news article that is floating around said they hoped to have the spots filled by June 1, but that was published right after they opened the application, so I wasn't sure if anyone had heard and update or a set cutoff date for decisions. I just want to be able to plan my life and to know if I need to move lol
I hope so! Bc it’s been awhile since there’s been any
I would. But kinda don’t want to be pushy. Guess it depends on how the email is phrased. Maybe say something like hi I was wondering when the next batch of decisions will come out? Idk
I think it’s 435. That covers pretty much all of Utah except Salt Lake City
I believe that's correct, I haven't seen anything else on here or the FB APVMA page (even searched "utah" and "USU" multiple times, lol). Of course, there's the possibility that someone not on these two websites could've received an offer though! But if I had to guess, a majority of the apps are probably IS and they might just be trying to get a good look at the whole OOS pool.
I talked to Ryan two weeks ago after posts were made that “most” people should have been contacted. He assured me that most spots were still available (for IS and OOS is my guess), and that more acceptances would be rolling out over the next few weeks. Still really vague on when we would hear anything, but there should still be a decent amount of spots for IS and OOS (hopefully).
I would wait till Friday maybe
I think acknowledging it’s a long process that is new is good before voicing your questions or frustrations. Please keep us posted!
