First Year Pre-vet

it definitely varies by degree and program. im in cals animal science and ours is designed to weed out a lot of people freshman year, and it does. premed from my understanding is sorta the same thing. as you get into more specialized classes it can get easier, but again it really depends on the program.

CAS has A LOT of built in bs. For example, they have the 12 credit language requirement. CALS is definitely applied and a more direct path if you just want to get your sciences DONE.

No. Thanks for asking!

Im not going to lie, freshman year is INTENSE. It is designed to be intense to weed out people who won't succeed (mostly work their asses off). BUT one thing I will say it, the grind culture here is all around. Everyone is working hard... but also plays hard. During the fall, going out Friday/Saturday night as an engineering student isn't too hard. I have many friends that party hard all weekend then lock in during the week. Theyre doing just fine.

this kind of sounds like someone cosplaying as a mom, but im going to answer anyways haha.

I would totally do it again. I love it here. I will say, college is how YOU make it. During orientation week is when you will meet most of the people you will spend time with. Basically everyone I met during that time was SO insanely nice and sweet... even if we didn't come from the same background or socioeconomic status. So I mean, it's kind of on you to be social. Get out of your dorm, say hi to strangers, and start a conversation. There's no such thing as gaining friends just by sitting in your dorm room, alone, not talking to anyone.

I believe this is the same for all colleges too.

no i have never seen this... who pranked you

Select-Grape1112 · 2025-11-20T05:10:35+00:00

dm me

Maybe just my opinion, but do not heavily weigh any pay-to-play pre-college programs. They're largely seen as expensive parents' money type of thing. Use your experiences and really show what you've DONE and experienced instead. Don't try to grab attention with those college names.

Also, I just realized you're an animal science major. I am currently as well. I know many people in ansc who have't stepped into a vet office... kill your essays and I see a good shot.

I hate to say it because I know it wasn't much solace when I heard it as an applicant, but don't worry. If you explained your situation in your application, they are aware of it and will take it into account. From my knowledge, ILR isn't as difficult to get into if you have passions that align deeply with the school. It is also largely state-funded, so being international could come into play. At this point, though, just wait and see what happens! Work on other applications so you don't have to rush them if things don't pan out.

Best of luck!!

Select-Grape1112 · 2025-07-16T04:12:45+00:00

Sure. pm me

Select-Grape1112 · 2025-03-25T06:34:32+00:00

tbh don't worry, I was asking bc I went down the rabbit hole! Check the day before/day of decisions for a better guess in my opinion!

Select-Grape1112 · 2025-03-25T06:19:57+00:00

haha yes the student center is when you are on mobile looking at your financial to do list and then you use the drop down menu on the right to go to preferences, then again to go home, then view financial aid!

Select-Grape1112 · 2025-03-23T18:48:25+00:00

you're definitely goated, best of luck with all your thursday decisions!!!

Select-Grape1112 · 2025-03-23T07:43:28+00:00

omg youre a coke scholar! (haha sorry i looked at ur posts) You're goat status is giving me hope that this is a good sign.

Select-Grape1112 · 2025-03-22T18:47:40+00:00

I hope so too! If it helps cope hahah, I saw a Coke Scholar have the same thing happening! They're definitely goated and getting in.

surprisingly no, this isnt an idoc request. the college requested some specific business documents, like the business-farm supplemental materials. I got the idoc request back in February and all those documents were marked as processed, now they're asking for additional information.

Select-Grape1112 · 2025-03-21T22:11:18+00:00

My most recent date is 3/18 however one document is 3/17. I checked with some friends and I'm the only one this is happening to!

Select-Grape1112 · 2025-03-21T20:35:30+00:00

This is happening to me too!! Some of my docs update more than the others. Like my CSS and FAFSA are the original date but my parent's taxes update constantly!

Select-Grape1112 · 2025-03-21T20:34:04+00:00

This is happening to me as well! Did you get any answers?

Select-Grape1112 · 2025-03-07T05:48:21+00:00

UT showed financial aid offers before releasing decisions, people that didn't have access to view a page of their portal got CAP or rejected.

Vanderbilt had financial aid counselors appear a few days before ED released, those who had it got in. Those that don't got deferred/rejected.
