Wanted to start a group for Western This is my top school, I hope we hear back soon!
Were you still waitlisted as an accepted student? Because I was waitlisted only and got a call that I was accepted at the end of July, so I thought they had gone through the whole list of students that were initially accepted but got placed on a waitlist.I also applied to Western as well. This is my second time applying, I got waitlist accepted for the class of 2024
I was waitlisted acceptance I never got a call or email to take me off the listWere you still waitlisted as an accepted student?

I submitted mine back in June however there was some issues with my transcripts being downloaded or received for the longest time before it was resolved this month!How long did it take for your application to be processed?
Okay I just wasn’t sure how long it was supposed to take the application portal said they received my application on 9/15 but it still says it has been sent for processingI submitted mine back in June however there was some issues with my transcripts being downloaded or received for the longest time before it was resolved this month!
I think that for last year the first round of interviews was end of October? So I'm guessing they should start rolling out any day now...! Although they may do things completely differently this time because of covid?Does anyone know when they will be sending out interviews ?

Has anyone's application status changed yet? Mine still says "sent to Admissions for processing."
Once your application is verified by the VMCAS and it gets sent to the schools, you should receive an email from Western saying they received your application and it will give you a link to make an account where you can check your application status.Where can you view your current status?
My application was verified almost a week ago but I never received an email from them. Should I be worried? Or patient?

Hello! Thanks for the reply. I created an account and have access to the portal, but I can’t find anywhere on that page where it shows the status of the application.Once your application is verified by the VMCAS and it gets sent to the schools, you should receive an email from Western saying they received your application and it will give you a link to make an account where you can check your application status.
I submitted on 9/6, was verified 9/10, and received an email from Western saying my application was received on 9/16. I’m sure they’re just swamped since most people submit right around the deadline so I wouldn’t stress about it!My application was verified almost a week ago but I never received an email from them.

For me under the “Next Steps” section of the portal page there’s just a sentence that says “Your application has been sent to Admissions for processing.”Hello! Thanks for the reply.

My application was verified on 9/15 and I received an email from them on 9/16. I reached out to them several times on 9/16, 9/17, and 9/18 because the email they sent me stated that I had to fill out the Repeated Courses Form through the portal and my application wouldn’t be complete if I didn’t submit it by the 9/15 deadline, which I was confused about since they only told me this a day after the deadline. They got back to me the next Monday. I’m not sure if communication is slow because of the wildfires or they’re just receiving a lot of emails/ calls at this time. You could reach out to one of the three admissions advisors and they should get back to you within a few days.My application was verified almost a week ago but I never received an email from them.

dumb question but Is the application portal you're referring to the VMCAS status tab? or is it another portal we have to sign up with western additionally? I'm not yet verified and haven't gotten any email from Western either so I'm kinda behind.Okay I just wasn’t sure how long it was supposed to take the application portal said they received my application on 9/15 but it still says it has been sent for processing
Not a dumb question! It’s another link that Western sends you once your VMCAS application is verified. I received an email with the link a day after my application was verified.dumb question but Is the application portal you're referring to the VMCAS status tab? or is it another portal we have to sign up with western additionally?

Does your application still say “sent to admissions for processing”? I’m not 100% sure but I think that changes to “under review” once they start reviewing your application. My ELORs have been checked off for a couple weeks and it still says it’s being processed.I just checked my portal and they just added in my ELORs today in my checklist, so hopefully that means they've started to review our apps. Wasn't on there when I checked a few days ago
Hmm mine does not list either anywhere so I guess they have not viewed my application yet and are still collecting all my informationDoes your application still say “sent to admissions for processing”?

Where exactly does it say “sent to admissions for processing” ? Can someone take a screenshot of the page please?Does your application still say “sent to admissions for processing”?

Thank you for that!
If you google “Western U applicant portal” it is the top result. On that page there’s an option to create a new account, which worked for me!Hi, where on the website?
I highly suggest doing this! I just logged into mine and it says I am missing a repeated course form as well.If you google “Western U applicant portal” it is the top result. On that page there’s an option to create a new account, which worked for me!
I created an account with the email that I used on VMCAS. When I first created the account, I could select the 20-21 application under “your applications” and then I could see my checklist. So I would suggest creating another account with the email you used for VMCAS.View attachment 319750
I created an account without the email. Is this the page yall see your DVM application showing up?
There's nothing showing as of right now. Maybe haven't got processed yet?

That’s so strange! But yeah maybe just wait for them to send you the link and it will work. I’m sure they’re just super busy right now and that’s why some people haven’t gotten the link yet.I did sign up with the email I used for VMCAS. I guess it's just more waiting!
My portal doesn't show a "next steps" option either.
I attended their WesternU Preview on 9/30 they will be sending out interview invitations throughout October however they were still figuring out how to set up online interviews. I'm glad I'm not the only one still waiting, I was getting really nervous haha.Hey all! Has anyone heard anything yet on when interviews will be sent out?
Finally got the email that my app is being reviewed. I can relax a bit now lolI don't have a next steps yet so I'm assuming I haven't been looked at yet! Guess I'll just keep waiting
Nice! When did you submit your app?Finally got the email that my app is being reviewed. I can relax a bit now lol
I submitted around first week of September, so I was definitely stressing about why I wasn’t seeing an update!Nice! When did you submit your app?
Got it. I received the same email you did about an hour ago. I submitted my application mid AugustI submitted around first week of September, so I was definitely stressing about why I wasn’t seeing an update!
