4 weeks after you take it you’ll get an email that has the link to the results. Schools get the results 2 weeks after
I would contact VMCAS and also westernU ( to be safe) as soon as possible they should be able to tell you.
I'm in a similar situation but VMCAS assured me that they are verifying applications until October 5th however it is up to the individuals school on whether they will accept your application. I contacted the schools that I applied to and most of them said they were accepting it after the deadline but, some made a note in my file and told me to email them once I am verified.
As long as it was submitted before the application deadline I don't see why it wouldn't be processed.
It wasn’t technically submitted, they weren’t able to access the request on their end for some reason and it was too late to troubleshoot so they just emailed it to VMCAS support. It went from “requested” to “expired” on my side after the deadline
Did you check again today? VMCAS apparently extended the deadline 24 hours
I did and it hasn’t changed- I think the deadline extension is just for actual submissions, not transcripts or LoRs (or at least that’s what I’ve seen on the screenshots going around)
Why not just save the PDF file
Yes you do lose access. Just save them to PDF
I would not count on the following as how to get copies of your application but just thought I'd mention the following as a piece of information. A couple years back I had a computer issue and lost all my saved documents including the copies of my applications. I was offered an interview and recommended that I review my application which I didn't have a copy of anymore (and past the period you could access them. I contacted VMCAS and they were able to email me a copy of it.
I would not add an experience you haven’t actively participated in. It’s not going to help your app if you haven’t started the experience anyway because you haven’t done anything, and worst case they may think you’re trying to pad experiences…just looking at your app how would they know if you’d follow through and actually do the thing vs lying about it? (Absolutely not saying you are, just saying what it might make me think if I saw an app with a mysterious new experience starting shortly after the closing period.) Bring it up at an interview or something instead once you’ve actually done the thing.
I asked Minnesota a similar question last year and they said no hours count after the deadline so they don’t even look at them
Thank you so much, that makes a lot of sense! I appreciate the feedback
VMCAS sent out an email recently that access to the application would be closing Oct 12th so this is probably why you can't log into your account
Yes. It has been so hard to occupy myself and think about other things. I feel like I wake up every day with my heart pounding and I have nightmares about rejection. I know this isn’t healthy, but you are not alone! Lol 🤣
you are not alone!! it is extra difficult because it is (very understandably) hard for those not going through this process to understand the level of anxiety and pressure this waiting period elicits - so if everyone else in your life is telling you to just chill, you are not alone and we hear ya
Might as well. Worst that happens is they don’t accept it but that’s no different than where your application is now.
You would have to ask the schools if they accept updates. If they do, then awesome; if not, then it is what it is.
Most schools are pretty vague on purpose. They don't give specific dates because at some point, there will be an issue where invites or updates aren't sent on time and 1000-2000 applicants freak out and start sending panicked emails. Can't be late if there's no timeline.
Most schools do no factor AP classes into their GPA because you took them in high school and generally don't have a grade on your college transcripts. My AP classes were essentially just "passes" that counted for my freshman year
I have that info on the schools i applied to so this may or may not be helpful to your situation.
Contact the schools and see if they can put a note on your file. Certain schools can, like Minnesota and Iowa, but other schools have a strict no updating policy like Colorado
Take this with a grain of salt as I'm not on any admissions committees, but .1 is not going to make or break anything. Schools have your official transcripts. And it sounds like you reported a lower GPA by accident? I wouldn't worry.
Don't stress. The dates will make it obvious that the supervisor is likely gone from the facility. If you have space, you can explain it. But don't waste the space doing so
vet school ranking is baloney.
