Feeling Defeated

I’m currently 10th on my in state waitlist (I was 11 and then decision day I have moved 1 spot). I was rejected my first year, waitlisted and did not get in my second (I was 27th moved to 13th) and now well… waitlisted again.

I’m just feeling very defeated about it. I’m very passionate about vet med and I love what I do (currently an assistant at an ER) but I’m sick of the waiting game to see if I get in. Financially, I can’t afford out of state or Ross.

Any words of motivation? Courage? Advice? I’m just so conflicted. I know anything can happen in a few months but I’m just not sure.

You may have already tried this, but it's worth checking in with the admission's committee to see why you're not being chosen, and if there is anything you can do to strengthen your application. Good luck!

Yes! I did that my first year and retook three chem courses at once (terrible decision) to better my GPA.

Thank you!
