VMRCVM Applicants c/o 2017

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Does anybody know if our waitlist ranking from the email is our original ranking right after the interview? Or are they updated after people have already been pulled off the waitlist?

I'm pretty sure it's at the time that they sent the email since mine said "your current position"
 
Still nothing about my waitlist position in the mail today... 2 days later. How long should I wait to email again? I emailed Joyce, maybe I need to email Dr. Pelzer?
 
I haven't heard anything about my waitlist position yet either! I emailed the dvmadmit email address. lt's a bit frustrating!
 
I finally heard today, I am 23rd on the waitlist. I figured, since I completely bombed that interview!

Mine also did not say 'current position.' Just that I am number 23.
 
Anybody know how far down they got on the OOS waitlist last year? Couldn't find it on the VMRCVM c/o 2016 thread from last year.
 
Hey all, I have some info for the OOS wait listers. I e-mailed Joyce after she told me my position (20) and she gave me more details. There are currently 44 people on the OOS wait list. In past years they have moved through about 20 people after the official decision day. All of the OOS spots are currently filled.

So, if any body in the teens or twenties is going to get a call, I imagine it'll probably be pretty last minute. That is total guess on my part though.

I know whining is annoying but, man I'm bummed I evidently did so poorly on the interviews. Although I did not have a particularly good feeling about it afterward. Oh well, there's always next year and its not over yet.

Good luck to all! And post if you get off the wait list! I have a feeling there's some lurkers who aren't posting when they get off...
 
Guilty as charged. Lurking without announcing. I sent an e-mail to [email protected] (very important to only use this, by the way) on the day after the deadline for initial acceptees and found out my position the next day. The e-mail said I was next up...and a few hours later, I received an admission offer! As you might have guessed, I accepted 🙂. For all current alternate listers and future applicants, I am IS MD.

Good luck, everyone!

Congratulations! We have a pretty awesome class!

Also, I just wanted to pass this along to anyone still waiting to hear back from the waitlists. First, don't give up hope! A lot of things can change during the next couple of months in terms of the spots filled. But, we were told we wouldn't get access to one of VT's websites until the class was full. We got access to it today. Again, don't completely give up yet, as some people could change their minds. I did want to let you guys know though. Sorry to bring kind of bad news, but I know I always like to know what's going on. Good luck to you guys though! I have my fingers permanently crossed that good news comes your way!
 
Thanks Eventrider! Congrats to you too!

I agree. So far it looks like we have a lot of nice people in our class!

Yeah, to second this bad news, our class officers just got word that the class of 2017 is full and complete. Sorry to everyone still waiting. You never know what might happen but...I wanted to let y'all know.

Thank you! We really do have some great people. The current students are pretty wonderful too 🙂
 
Hey! Just wanted to let you guys know I was called off the waitlist yesterday. I'm a WV resident so it's for one of the contract seats. Also, if anyone has any suggestions for housing or if anyone is looking for a roommate, please let me know!!! Can't wait to meet you all!
