I just submitted my app. I have my receipt of payment and everything, but I noticed I'm still able to completely access my online application. The submit option at the bottom is missing, otherwise it looks completely the same. It IS submitted right??? 😕
 
Nevermind! I just got my email confirmation.

I worry too much... :laugh:
 
Yaaay! Hitting submit is always the hardest part! 😀
 
hey guys - if you submit, are you able to still use the "print application" option? i don't have a printer at home, but want to print my application before i submit...

THANKS! 🙂 good luck everyone!

I cannot speak for PC users. But as for mac, you go to File, Print, and click the "Save as PDF" button. Then you can email the PDF or save to a key drive and print wherever you like!

Yes, you can still access your application and everything after submitting and you can definitely print it after submitting.

thanks guys! i always wondered how you can save as a pdf on PCs...i wish we had that option..

ahhh ok im submitting -- so much for my goal of submitting 2 weeks in advance 😱
 
Yeeaaa! I've submitted my VMCAS application; wow, does that feel good!!:soexcited:

Now, let the waiting begin...

PC users do have a solution. Download Primo PDF, it is free. I downloaded it because all the powerpoints take too much memory, so I convert them all to PDF. The way it is set up, you select print, and select the printer as Primo PDF and it converts it to whatever quality PDF you want...
 
Congratulations to everyone that has submitted! Best of luck!! :luck::luck: (This makes me think of the Tom Petty song that has that line "Waiting is the hardest part...")
 
Pressmom,

Thanks; you've been a big help! 😉
 
I submitted last night but haven't received the confirmation email yet. Turnandburn, how long was it before you received the email?

I use mostly PCs and I was able to save the app as a PDF by going through the print function and selecting Adobe PDF

I think it was within the hour. I wouldn't worry yet though, there are probably a lot of people who were submitting last night!
 
I still haven't received the confirmation but I called VMCAS and they said they'd received it. It would go out with the next batch! 🙂
 
I just now realized that one sentence in my P.S. makes no sense whatsoever!! :scared:
 
Really? Care to share that one sentence?
 
I believe it is through this continuous, localized leadership, that I hope to, as a veterinarian, represent animal health and welfare expertise to my community.

Top THAT!:hardy:
 
Well I mean it's awkward but I think it's easy to understand what you are trying to convey. Try not to beat yourself up over it. 🙂

After I hit submit I refused to reread anything in my PS for that reason.

...easier said than done for a gal who's been a copywriter in previous lives!! But thanks! 😳
