WSU c/o 2017 Applicants!!

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Hey guys! I emailed admissions last week about some missing stuff for my application, I was told that they started looking at applications last week! Hopefully interview invites won't be too far off! I was told to expect to hear something during the first few weeks of december. Also, invites/acceptances come by email, but rejections come by snail mail (at least, that's what I was told by last year's applicants). good luck everyone! :luck:

Thanks for the info! 👍 🙂 And good luck to you too!
 
How exciting! I can't believe we'll hear back in a few weeks. Good luck to everyone!!
 
When will you be notified about the WSU-USU 2+2 program invitations?
 
When will you be notified about the WSU-USU 2+2 program invitations?

I'm applying for that too! My understanding is that they should be sent out at the same time as the regular notifications. Sometime in the next few weeks hopefully!

I'm a first year at USU (awesome program so far!!!). And everything USU does is through WSU. If you are not a UT resident, you will receive your notification from WSU and would interview up in Pullman (only UT residents interview in Logan). Then if/when you get accepted you will get your notification through WSU. I got my acceptance to USU a few days after a few of my friends got acceptances to WSU but like I said, the acceptance still came from WSU. Unless you are a UT resident you won't hear from USU until you get accepted. The rest comes from WSU and is all roughly at the same time. Good luck! I'm so excited to see 30 new faces around here next year!

I'm glad you're enjoying the program! I know a few people in the class and everything they've had to say about it has been good. It's exciting that it's going so well! Hopefully I'll be able to join you guys next year :xf:

Perhaps 29 new faces and one old? 😀
 
Either I've been blind or my Application Status webpage definitely added something like a "Transcript Status" section to my page. Of course, this says my transcript hasn't been received because this is WSU's new policy (no transcripts until invited for an interview). Weird. Anyone else get this? 😕 Why would they even add this if transcripts weren't meant to be sent lol

weird... I just checked mine and there isn't a section for transcripts. just VMCAS, supp. and GRE scores.

Nope I don't have that either

Old but good! Crossing my fingers friend! You're the reason I make daily reappearances on SDN again. It's like going through the whole process all over again! We are dying to see what happens!!!

Maybe it is a sign of what is to come!!!

Hi Busybee, I have the same thing on my page. I think they might be updating it for everyone, but they are just doing it a little by little. I know I didn't have it yestersay, because I looked when you posted this : }

Same here! I think they might be getting ready to send out invitations. 😕

I saw the transcript box the day you mentioned it! I was still lurking at the time 😀 Keeping my fingers crossed for us all!!
 
🙂 I guess our suspicions were correct. Interview TBD via snail mail! Hope the rest of you also received great news!
 
No transcript box on my application status page and no word from admissions yet. *fret*

Maybe they're just doing Tier I applicants right now?
 
I got my interview invite (12/6), but the date and time will be announced through mail!!! 🙂
 
Abs, I think good thoughts for you everyday. I hope you hear good news soon.

First off, congratulations to everyone who got an interview invite!

And now for my question, is there anyone else here applying WICHE who got a "notification of admission" email for "an out-of-area, nonresident position"? Does this mean we are no longer in the running for WICHE funding?

My understanding is that the only people who can get in without an interview are the WICHE students. So if you were offered admission this early I believe you should have gotten the WICHE funding. Last year the OOS applicant interviews were held after the IS (in January) and admissions decisions rolled out around Feb 1. I would contact Barbara Hodson to be sure though.

I'm pretty sure it just means that they wanted to offer you a spot regardless if you receive WICHE funding or not. If in January, you do become sponsored, you're nonsponsored, non-resident offer converts to a WICHE offer. That's how the other schools do it anyways.

And..CONGRATS! 👍😀

Thanks! 😀 I wasn't sure since their website says Jan/Feb for WICHE acceptances and the email made no mention at all.

That said, I have an exam in 3 hours and this is totally not helping my motivation to study...
 
I went to look at the notice of interview and I noticed that it said the "Washington-Idaho-Utah Regional Program in Veterinary Medicine Admissions Committee" has made the decision to give me an interview. Did anyone else have that? I am interested because I didn't mark that I was interested in the Utah campus 2+2 campus. I just marked the WSU Pullman location one.

Mine says the same thing and I only applied for the WSU Pullman location as well.
 
Received a snail mail letter from WSU today, it said I will be offered a spot if I get WICHE support no interview needed.
if not I am invited to set up an interview as an OOS sure hope I get WICHE and end this madness

😀

That's actually what I thought would happen for WICHE applicants and I think that's how it was last year, too. Did you receive an email from admissions? Mine didn't give any options or talk about WICHE or interviews, which I thought was a little strange.😕 Guess I'll have to give them a call next week and sort things out.

Edit: Nevermind, got my letter in the mail!😀 Congrats!

Has anyone from Canada heard from WSU yet? I hate snail mail..
 
I received the same -- YAY! I think that just means it's the committee that reviews in-state and the few other non-WICHE contract programs. I was starting to feel a little worried about the lack of love from my in-state school!
 
Anybody ever heard of WSU sending early acceptances w/o an interview? In my couple years of experience with the WSU application process, I have never heard of this, but I recently was told that someone I know has already been offered a spot at WSU.
 
Congrats to everyone who's been granted an interview/acceptance!!

Quick question for y'all...did all of your portals change (add'n of the transcript box) prior to receiving an email/snail mail?

Yes. That is how I knew that WSU was sending out invitations.

I received an email notification and a letter in the mail around the same time a few days ago. I go an early admissions offer for an out of area, non-resident spot... that may be converted to a WICHE-supported seat if I get the funding (from AZ). The letter said that this is the first year that are sending out early admission offers to out of area applicants.
 
So I have been upset for a couple days, not having a letter in my box. On a whim, I went to clear out my junk email box and low and behold.

"Congratulations! The Washington-Idaho-Utah Regional Program in Veterinary Medicine Admissions Committee is happy to officially offer you an out-of-area, nonresident position in the Class of 2017 – to matriculate in the fall of 2013."

I am a WICHE hopeful so I'm not really sure what this means for me. I'm going to call the school today and try to find out if I'm still in the running for WICHE. But check your spam filters everyone!! Every single other email from them came through and of COURSE my acceptance was filtered out.

Also not sure if this takes me out of the running for admission into WSU non regional program.

Also!!! This is very important!

I still do not have a box for "transcript" or whatever box appeared for everyone else, so don't lose hope!
 
Sorry for the third post in a row. I just want to try to pass along as much info as possible, so everyone remains hopeful....

My portal does not reflect the decision of admission. It just says my application is "complete and under review".
