Do you guys think today could be the day? 😳

 

[FutureDogtor12345678910]

What time were interviews sent last year

 

[futuredogtor1209]

Do you guys think today could be the day? 😳

I just realized December 4th last year was a Monday... now I'm getting nervous that we may get something today.

 

[PixelPenguinz]

omg, cue the panic attacks lol!

 

[re0289]

What time were interviews sent last year

I am unsure of the interview invites, but I was sent an OOS rejection on 12/04 at 4pm

 

[PixelPenguinz]

invites and rejections came out at the same time last year

 

[mn1309]

Ooff so it’s still possible lol

 

[spencerbird]

Ahhh been refreshing my emails but nothing 🤣

 

[dogtorelgan]

My educated guess is Friday

 

[barkology]

Current first year- word around school is that they will be sent next week. They have sent them on Mondays historically. Best of luck everyone!

 

[PixelPenguinz]

Damn, we have to wait a whole other week

Hey everyone! The director of admissions for VMCVM commented on a facebook post earlier from the pre-vet group. This is per Shelby Stegall:

“Hi All, Director of Admissions at VMCVM! With the increase in application numbers this year interview decisions will probably be sent a little later than normal, we are hoping for sometime next week!”

Hope this helps and sending good vibes to everyone!!

 

[turtle36]

It’s refreshing to see some schools actively communicating! The radio silence from so many other places is brutal

 

[mn1309]

The increase in applications makes me so nervous…as a third time applicant I feel like my chances just get lower and lower each time.

 

[shaakshi15]

Have they sent any emails regarding prerequisites completed via test credits?

 

[dogtorelgan]

I second this…and I hate it.

 

[pjackson2010]

I second this…and I hate it.

Third this! (3rd time applying OOS) I did an app review last year and they said everything looked great, there was just a big pool of good applicants

 

[pjackson2010]

Has VA-MD posted the breakdown of IS/OOS applicants for this year?

 

[hayleemarr1]

Has VA-MD posted the breakdown of IS/OOS applicants for this year?

I can’t find anything for this year, but last year it was 87 IS and 41 OOS

 

[PixelPenguinz]

Does anyone who was at the open house remember how many IS/OOS interview seats there are?

 

[barkology]

Does anyone who was at the open house remember how many IS/OOS interview seats there are?

tbh i don’t know if they really ever release exact number breakdowns on that. They accepted 500 for interviews last year.

Has VA-MD posted the breakdown of IS/OOS applicants for this year?

if i remember correctly, i think they didn't post the breakdown of any stats for my class until we were here for a little bit. They did tell us at an info session the numbers from MD/VA/OOS that they invited for interviews though, so keep an eye out for information sessions They were helpful as well

 

[ekenealy]

Hey guys! I’m a first year at vmcvm. Just wanted to pop in and say that i know it is borderline impossible but try to enjoy the holidays and breathe. Whether you get an interview or not does not define you or your ability to be a vet in the future! How are my IS feeling about in person interviews? Feel free to message me with any questions

I’m really excited for in-person interviews! It will also be incredible to meet other applicants!

 

[ekenealy]

Based on all the info here, Monday between 4 and 5pm seems likely. Fingers crossed for everyone! 🤩 Even if next week is likely, that doesn't mean that every email I get between now and then still won’t send my HR soaring!

Important Dates and Deadlines

dvm.vetmed.vt.edu

So it says notification of interview invitations are to go out in early to mid December... Getting a little anxious as it could be any day now.

Yup! They did the first Monday and first Friday of the first full week of December the past two cycles. So, might be today. But according to info from Director of Admissions, high volume of applicants may delay their invites/rejections to 2nd Monday (the 9th). Historically, 12/9 is a preferred/target date, which makes Monday even more likely. Emails usually sent out between 4 and 5pm. However, every year is a little different and all we can do is wait.

 

[spencerbird]

Anybody hear anything today? Hoping for Monday 🙏

 

[PixelPenguinz]

I did not and it’s already past five pm EDT so it looks like it’s going to be Monday

 

[littlebalto]

I’m so scared. I’m IS so VMCVM is my best and most preferred shot. I know I will be ok if I have to take a gap year, but I don’t want to deal with the stress of it all. I thought I was zen about it a month ago but now that it’s so close I am NOT lol. Hope everyone else isn’t fretting too much

I’m also freaking out, my stomach has been doing somersaults all weekend. As a third cycle applicant, this is my last chance. The thought of possibly having to choose another career after all the years of hard work is terrifying 😭

I continually feel like that GIF of the owl where the person says something like, “oh, she’s so calm!!!” And then the owl turns around and her pupils are saucers. That’s me.

FELT praying for good news for us both after three cycles. 🩷

I feel like it's definitely going to be tomorrow (I may die from anxiety if not). Sending good vibes to everyone.

A note for first time applicants (what I wish I had heard): Regardless of the outcome you did your best and I'm proud of you. This is literally so hard mentally and academically. If you don't get it, the interview/application reviews are so helpful and while I still feel like I'm going to vomit, it's not nearly as bad as last year. Whether it takes you 1 try or 7, you'll get there if you don't give up. There is no "correct" timeline for these kind of things. Take a deep breath, what happens happens.

 

[MountainFolk]

Does anyone know how many out of state seats are offered usually?

Last year in the interview email they said they shoot for:

VA: 50
MD: 30
WV: 6
OOS: 42

 

[turtle36]

If it is today, good luck to everyone. You are a deserving applicant and talented person regardless of this outcome ❤️

 

[mn1309]

Sending good vibes..good luck everyone!

It's my birthday today, so really hoping for a good birthday gift!!!

What facebook group is it? I am apart of "APVMA: The American Pre-Veterinary Medical Association" and I don't see a post by her.
