Wait, you aren't early decision or anything, are you?! They're releasing RD?!
 
Has anyone who was accepted recieved their acceptance letter in the mail? The email said they would send them out soon but it’s been two weeks and I haven’t received anything in the mail yet. Just need to know if I should email them to resend it or not. Thanks!

I received mine on Wednesday. It was dated Dec 17. So they must have sent them out that day or a day after. Hopefully it’ll get to you soon!
 
Does anyone know if a second wave of regular decision acceptances has been sent out?
They've been out of the office since 12/21. I know they were beginning to review more apps but I believe they are waiting until the 1st wave people have sent in deposits (by 1/15).

Can I ask how you made that decision/ why you are leaning towards VCU?

Mainly because VCU would be in state for me honestly and I love Richmond as a city to live in. It’s such an incredible program and I also am drawn to it because of all the other great medical facilities and programs that VCU has. I think they’re investing a lot of resources into their health programs (new buildings and facilities all over the medical campus) which would be great to be a part of.

Hey! You heard from VCU Friday?
When did your applications submit?
 
Haven't heard anything yet, other than there has not been a decision made on my application the last time I heard from them which was two weeks ago.
 
I saw there are 70 members in the VCU DPT 2022 Fb page, I'm assuming this means they've filled their class?

I've also been watching that page. The ones from last year and the one before have 70-80 members, so maybe there's still some space left? I feel like that number could possibly include faculty or students from other years adding themselves to the page. Since none of us have heard anything definitive back I'm guessing there's still some spots left, I just don't know how many.

There's about 13-15 members that are a part of other classes that are facilitating the group. So there's about 56-57 of us that are in right now. I wasn't told how many they are accepting this year due to the new building opening, its most likely between 55-60 though.

Thanks. I was accepted last week!
