Waitlist for 2022

Veterinary School Application Advising Ad
This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
They probably also have to wait for people who they offered admission to from a waitlist to accept or decline. Most schools give 24-48 hours I think to decide, so they have to know if the space is filled or not before they can call someone else if it’s declined.
 
does anyone know if upenn’s class is full already or not? i know a bunch of schools send emails that it’s full but i didn’t see anything on threads about penn!

i honestly hope that it's not full yet D: for my sake
 
So I am very happy to have been offered a spot at UW Madison, but I am still on a waitlist for CSU. I would be so happy with either school; both are OOS for me. At what point do I stop waiting for CSU and move forward with roommate/housing for Wisco?? Any advice is appreciated!

I contacted Cornell, and they said that the class is still a work in progress meaning not all hope is lost! They will be following up with alternates in the next few days so I guess we'll have more updates then...

Thank you so much! That means a lot 🙂 I'm also glad to see there is another Always Sunny fan out there

You can definitely help mod if you want! I'll put what I have into an organized place this weekend, and send it to you, OK?

That's a toughy picking a favorite moment, but it's definitely a 3-way tie of these 🙂


 
For those on Auburn waitlist, I just emailed and got this response:

Thank you for your email. Do know that the class has been filled. However, I will update all individuals who are on the waiting list toward the end of the summer, as there can be (as has been the case in the past) be movement in the class throughout the summer. While this is not set in stone and there is no guarantee of this happening, I want to make sure that you know it is a possibility.
 
Update for Cornell and UW Madison:

Cornell's class is officially full, but they may have a few seats open up in the summer.

I was originally #174 on UW Madision's waitlist and now I am #77. So that list is moving along quite a bit! Not holding my breath for that one personally.

Looks like gap year #2 is a go for me.

Thanks guys, I appreciate it. It might be for the best so I can save up more money and get more experience. I'll be getting more veterinary experience this summer through my boss here at Cornell along with possibly authoring a paper or two. Just a little bummed today is all!

Johnnaboo you are not alone, the mild depression setting in. At least 3rd time around, we will be pros at applying and interviewing-they will have to take us!
 
anyone else keep answering spam calls with LA area codes thinking they're from western? 🙄

Also you should apply to uiuc next cycle 😉

Sorry johnnaboo! Sending all my positive energy and good vibes your way!

I just got that email from Cornell too. I'm debating whether it's worth the anxiety of leaving myself on the Cornell waitlist for the summer or if I should just accept the spot that I have at Colorado. It felt like a relief honestly to finally get that email and know where I was going but then I read more closely and saw that spots sometimes open up... I just kind of want to move on and get housing sorted, etc.
 
I just got an offer for a non-sponsor at CSU! Ahhhhhh. The only thing is CSU is my in-state school and I cant decide if I should accept or not. Of course, I would loveeee to go, but that is an extra 100,000.😳 Anyone have advice?

If you accept and an accepted sponsored person declines or can't attend for some reason, would they move you over to the sponsored position?

Don’t put yourself in an extra HUNDRED THOUSAND dollars of debt if you don’t have to. Seriously.

Yes, if someone drops out then I could accept a sponsored spot. However, they don't release any rankings so I have no idea how many people would be ahead of me. I also do not know if that would apply for all 4 years or just until the drop deadline in August 1st year.

If it's the only school you applied to, I would accept and hope for the best in terms of a sponsored position. There is a reason you wanted to apply only to CSU so try to see if those reasons outweigh reasons to not accept and try again. There is no guarantee you'll get accepted anywhere next cycle and if you don't, you might always regret losing two years to be in practice earlier. Applying and waiting for another cycle might not be worth the expense if you have a guaranteed, albeit not perfect, acceptance.

That's very true, and I'm just thankful I was accepted at all. It is really the only career path I want to take and have been working on for years. CSU is my top school and I moved here so I could get residency. I just finished up a masters at CSU too and absolutely love the school/area. I'm leaning more towards taking the risk and hoping for the best. Thank you so much for your advice!!

Yes, congratulations, CSU is a great school! We may know each other actually haha. I've been at CSU for the last two years finishing a masters as well. 🙂 I love the area as well. You're welcome!
 
Just got pulled off the CSU non-sponsored alternate waitlist yesterday...still in shock and keep reading the email because CSU was my shot-in-the-dark school and I never thought I would get in. However, I committed to my IS school (Michigan St) and am excited to attend there (and for the cheaper tuition). I hope my spot goes to someone who needs it!!! Good luck everyone.

Thnk u fr already goin 2 da cheeper skool
(Also congratulations on getting into both CSU and MSU!!!!!)
 
Are any of the waitlists still moving? I'm in the single digits on Michigan's OOS waitlist and am making myself crazy.
 
I'm posting this on here too.

Mmmkay so I may be hyperventilating. Had given up and planned to do a second gap year and apply for a third time.

Then yesterday a few people on here posted that UW's OOS waitlist is cruising along. I was #38 in the the last update email they sent out. Yesterday the people who were #15, #16, and #20 were offered spots and they all declined.

So in case fate has other plans for me, I'd really appreciate it if someone could tell me more about UW's curriculum, environment, etc. I might pass out if I get offered a spot and plan to move to a place I know nothing about.

Also I looked at the price and it's terrifying. But if I get in, I'm going.

I feel like they have to have *some* sort of ranking system...like who has the time to go through each individual application on the waitlist every time a seat becomes available?:thinking:

From what I understand they kinda do. With the goal of ensuring that the class is diverse in background and area of interest, I think the next person called off the waitlist depends on the last person who declined their seat. For example let’s say a person interested in large animal medicine that grew up in a rural setting was offered a seat and declined. The next person called off of an unranked waitlist may be the next highest ranked applicant interested in large animal medicine. The waitlist is “unranked” because they can’t predict the demographics of the people who will decline their seat. I could be totally wrong but that’s what I’ve read in posts from previous years.
