Did you apply to VMCVM last year? I am going to do it but I feel certain it’s due to my low GPA (3.11 cGPA) so I am interested to see if that’s what they say.
I also have a lower GPA but I’ve known people with GPAs lower than or similar to mine that have gotten in. It’s so frustrating, I think the large number of applicants that keeps increasing with so few seats just makes it so much more difficult.

I did, and they gave me very helpful feedback on how to boost my ranking. I was in a similar boat last year. Feel free to dm me!

OOS rejection. Guess my masters and over 6 years of experience were both just a hobby to this school too??
this is so disappointing i'm so sorry. wishing you the best of luck the rest of this cycle! the competition of this whole process makes me so upset because everyone is so deserving of getting in.
 
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.
I’m also a Multi year applicant and totally understand the feeling!! I got an interview invite today though (although it says class of 2028. So not sure on that.
 
OOS rejection 🙁 this was my top school so i'm very crushed and it's my birthday. definitely not feeling good
Happy bday fellow sagittarian … mine is on Friday
This is my fifth time (and final) applying to vet school. Don’t give up hope. The process is grueling but they’re already revamping a lot of the procedures and processes. You will get in.

I just received an OOS (IL) interview invite at 3:27! I stopped reading when they listed “after receiving over 2200 applications” because I assumed it was a rejection. Then I re-read it and was like WAIT WHAT?

Thank you! Happy almost birthday. That gives me lots of hope, thank you. I'm rooting for you! Your dedication and hard work through all those cycles just proves you'll make a great vet!
 
IS (VA) interview invite for the second time! Good luck to everyone!

Has anyone picked a day/time for the interview already? Why do they ask if anyone will be accompanying us?

I feel this…this is my third cycle. I have 5 years of full-time work experience in the field in all areas. It’s so frustrating because we worked so hard and there’s so few seats
 
IS (VA) rejection. 3rd time applicant to VMCVM. Have done their application reviews the past two years. Made the changes they recommended to my otherwise “perfect” application. Feeling crushed and confused. Hopefully next year is better.
Congratulations to those who were invited for interviews. You’ve got this!!!
Wow, kudos to you for staying so optimistic! Gl with the rest of your cycle!!
 
For the oos interviews do yall mind sharing your stats?
My last 45 and Pre-req GPAs were 4.00; my cumulative GPA was 3.35. I feel like my essays and non-traditional background played a large role in getting an interview. I still honestly cannot believe I received an interview, though.

I might be wrong. I thought it’s a recording interview. You can pick anytime based on your own time during the time period they mentioned in the email. There is also an info session coming up.

Thank you for saying that. I cast a wide net this year with 15 schools… surely something needs to stick At this point! 2 interview invites, 4 rejections and 9 unknowns. You’ll get in, keep working! You got this
