That's not how accreditation works and many US schools are also under probation or have been recently.Does anyone know what's up with the probationary period on the UK schools? I'm worried about applying there and spending all this money and suddenly they aren't AVMA accredited anymore upon graduation and won't be qualified to take the NAVLE.
I wouldn’t consider this extenuating circumstances where it needs to be in an explanation statement instead. That section is more for things like “my mom died during junior year of undergrad and it affected my grades and I repeated this class and then got an A afterwards” or any other type of situation where grades were affected during a semester/year for some reason and you learned XYZ skills to prevent that from happening in the future and have done successfully since then
Hello! Sorry for the super late reply, I have been gone at a military training! Would you still be willing to look my PS over? I just finished my first draft finally!I didn't have space for to fit humor the way I wanted to in my PS but I had it littered all over my supplemental essays.
I'm happy to look it over if you want
Doesn’t matter, just be consistent with whatever you choose.
I don't know, and I don't know that they would openly say whether or not AI is used. Better to be safe and do the editing yourself, the old-fashioned way.
Best to contact the school directly.
Contact the school individually. They’re the only ones who can decide if it fits. Email a syllabus if you can as well.
Did you use the tracking ID VMCAS gives you to order transcripts? Either way I would reach out to VMCAS to see if they can find them before you reorder. They will hopefully be able to help you.
I am fairly certain I used the tracking number. I emailed VMCAS and they said they cannot locate the transcripts if they were sent a month ago
so time to reorder I suppose
I would double check with VMCAS, last cycle I didn't need to re-order any transcripts if they had no changes.
Since it's before the deadline they should be able to help you out! I would 100% call their helpline though instead of waiting on a response through email. I had an issue last year and talking over the phone got it resolved soooo much quicker than waiting on email responses.
Thanks for taking the time to write this. It made me feel a lot better. According to their chat customer service, since my application is verified there is nothing they can do. I'll try calling and update here in case it helps other students. It was the worst time for my dog to have to go out and I figure I'll just click save and come back to it.Since it's before the deadline they should be able to help you out!

edit to add because i forgot: at the end of the day though, I don't think 1 bad experience entry would ruin your application, so don't stress too much! but this is why you submitted early so now you have this time to fix and tweak when stuff like this happens!
Hi, I did this once and they just recommend that I make a new one and put the title as "Correction: ...." or "Updated: ..." at the front. Whether you choose to do that or just leave it alone, I would not worry about it too much. You are definitely not the only one that has done this and I don't think it will make a big impact on your app at all.
You're so nice! Thank you for this. I called and that's exactly what they told me. I'm not sure I want to draw a lot of attention to it as I probably think it's far worse than it may look to admissions.

In general, their requirements are their requirements for a reason. So while there’s really no harm in asking, it’s probably very unlikely they’ll make an exception. If they made one for you then they’d need to make one for everyone and then it’s essentially no longer a requirement.
Yes!
I would lump those all together if they were all associated with the one position.
About 10 days for me
Most people don't know what they want to do for sure before going to school. And then the whole point of school is to show you the world and all your options. So don't overthink this.
And then 50%* of the ones who do end up changing their plan while in school anyway.
Potentially including this one
hello! For my resume, I went about as far back as my experiences in the VMCAS. Major events from senior year of HS all the way to present day. I included mostly animal experiences. However, I think it is super important to put as much down as you're comfortable with. If you had non-animal related jobs in customer service, food industry, hospitality, lab technician, you can highlight the major skills you developed ie: serving a client, phone etiquette, time management, aseptic technique, or anything that will really help you in as a future veterinarian.
If you're concerned about them not finishing your LOR, touch base and ask how things are going. You can ultimately remove them from your application entirely if you think it will be a problem
Anywhere from Sept/Oct to Feb
I think you're correct actually. I think I was thinking that people need to order all transcripts
