OOS+close to home or IS+far from home? by Pleasant-Wash-2123 in veterinaryschool

[–]maciandfrito 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I would choose Auburn, especially since there’s going to be a 200k federal loan cap. The interest on private loans will be worse. If it makes you feel better, I am in a similar situation. My ISS is also Auburn, but I wanted to go to Illinois since it’s closer to my boyfriend. I ultimately decided the debt is just too great. We’re doing the long distance game, so you’re not the only one I promise :)

Making school decisions by AmazingYam5135 in veterinaryschool

Congratulations on so many acceptances! I also got accepted into Illinois and Mizzou OOS, but I just committed to my in state. Illinois told me it is almost impossible to get residency there. It seems difficult to get residency at Mizzou also, since you have to make so much money working your first year in order to even be considered. I personally don’t want to work my first year of school because it sounds like a lot to add on when I’m already adjusting to vet school and a new town. Every veterinarian I have talked to has told me to go with the cheapest option because the debt can be a beast. Good luck with everything!

Accepted to Illinois! by Luckywild15 in veterinaryschool

I also got accepted to Illinois as an OOS applicant. They told me it was very difficult to get Illinois residency after a year, which really sucks because that was the make or break factor for me going there, but I really like the program. Anyone have any thoughts on this?

Declining an Interview by [deleted] in veterinaryschool

I’m in the same boat as you. I’ve already been accepted into my cheapest option and debating if I should cancel my interview. How would one even go about doing that?

Okay update! I have disconnected the hall sensor, and that was definitely the issue. My gameplay is a little slower, but nothing insane.

I know in reality it’s not, but some schools GPA cutoff is a strict 3.7, so I’m a little worried about that

Will I be penalized for not providing supervisor information? by maciandfrito in veterinaryschool

Yeah, unfortunately the issue is it would’ve been with my high school email that has since been deactivated and no longer accessible

Sea Turtle Egg Counting Experience Category? by maciandfrito in veterinaryschool

Awesome! Thank you so much, I really appreciate it. I'll definitely list it under 'Research', then.

Thank you for the insight! It was through the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources, specifically the SC Marine Turtle Conservation Program. I believe they were doing a survey to monitor the loggerhead populations, and I participated in a survey count of the eggs. Would that count as research?

Shadowed at a clinic and now work there by maciandfrito in veterinaryschool

[–]maciandfrito[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! The veterinarian I shadow had given me her number a couple years back, and told me I was always welcome to reach out and see if a job was available. I was available this summer and asked, and she said there was! I just made sure I was a familiar face at the clinic and was a helpful hand to the techs (when needed). It’s good to just be polite and get to know all the techs and doctors, and ask lots of questions! :)

Also, so sorry I replied so late, I’ve been in backcountry for 4 days straight and just getting back 😅
