Is it bad that I’ve already been looking for apartments
I'm taking a grad trip with a few of my close friends in Asia for a few weeks, then spending one week in Europe touring alone! Super nervous for it (and also the amount of $$ I'll be spending) but I'm SO excited to finally have some time to myself and explore the world while I can
PLEASE TAKE TIME THIS SUMMER TO DO SOME FUN THINGS. DONT TRY AND STUDY AHEAD. ITS NOT WORTH IT.
I am 99% sure I’m going to accept my seat at Ohio!Where have you decided to attend?
Awesome, congrats!!I am 99% sure I’m going to accept my seat at Ohio!
I'm in the same boat! I'm 27 but still, being out of UG for 5 years, I am nervous to be thrown into the fire of a crazy work load!Yay c/o 2024!!!!
I accepted my seat at VMCVM, my dream school! Yesterday I received my student ID number and set up my school email address! It's the little things.
Also feeling stressed about finding pet friendly housing, the moving process, and losing my income. I'm 32 and have worked since I was 18 so this is crazy to me!
Ohio!!!!!Got accepted to Tennessee, Ohio State, Texas A&M but still waiting on GA and LMU before making that final decision. Since NJ has no instate cost doesn’t come into play that much. It’s so hard to decide when the schools are so awesome. I’m just finishing up undergrad but physics 2 is the only prereq I’m finishing up. Planning on giving my brain a vacation over the summer before the fun begins!!!!
I would knock on wood to and accidentally did it on the desk in one of my interviews when I said "when I become a vet". They all laughed and I got an offer, but I sure felt silly in the moment lol.Same! Been out only a year, but every time I talked about vet school or me getting in, I always knocked on wood haha. I’m 99% sure the college I’m going to choose, but it’s crazy that we all did it!! No more dreaming peeps, only achieving
Just don’t overload yourself with too many extracurriculars at the beginning of the year! I was out of school for a while too and just made sure to not overload myself so I still had a lot of time how to relearn how to studyI'm in the same boat! I'm 27 but still, being out of UG for 5 years, I am nervous to be thrown into the fire of a crazy work load!
So excited I’m counting down the days until I move to Oregon. Also signed up for a world vets trip to DR! Most of my experience was as a vet assistant or shadowing so I definitely feel behind as far as experience goes compared to other applicants.
Have fun at girls scout camp! (first two weeks of classes here)Eek-- Yay c/o 2024!! I'm ready for this adventure with ya'll.
I keep an emergency fund that I don't touch, just in case. Also if you're not paying for tuition as well I would recommend just putting all the money toward your first year tuition instead of trying to live on it for four years. To each their own of course but it'll help with the need based aid in the future too.Ahhhh!!! I’m in the same boat!! I’m turning 30 this year and I’ve had such a cushy job the last 8 years—I’m so nervous to have to start budgeting my savings to last me 4 years.
Hopefully us boys are allowed in this camp?Have fun at girls scout camp! (first two weeks of classes here)
As a fellow OOS peep, it still does, actually more in some cases. Take care to look at OOS tuition and fees between the schools and living expenses. Ask current students what they spend on rent and utilities. Good luck!Got accepted to Tennessee, Ohio State, Texas A&M but still waiting on GA and LMU before making that final decision.

Yup! They usually form their own little troup all by themselves (not by force or anything I think they just group up for protection for the first week or two )Hopefully us boys are allowed in this camp?
I’ve been told not to worry too much about experience in comparison to other applicants past this point, you got accepted so what you have done is enough (I mean obviously do more for fun of course!). I only had experience as an assistant/shadowing.
Congrats!! It'll be so exciting living abroadI'm probably the odd ball out here, but I accepted my seat at UCD Dublin In Ireland! 2024 can't come soon enough! Congrats to all of C/O 2024! We are finally doing this!!
I am seriously considering Dublin, I'm deciding between WSU and CSU! If I can figure out all the details and how to make Dublin work I will be there too!I'm probably the odd ball out here, but I accepted my seat at UCD Dublin In Ireland! 2024 can't come soon enough!

Hey, this time last year I had already found and signed for an apartment. It varies from city to city. In Philly, February is already late to be looking. In many other cities, most people look a couple months before move-in.Is it bad that I’ve already been looking for apartments

Hey! I most likely will be small animal! I believe They have a set amount of time for clinical year for each animal group and small animal is the largest portion. Either way, we can focus our education at some point I believe. I'm touring the school tomorrow so I'll ask a ton of questions!Hey! I'm thinking of accepting my seat to Ireland as well. Are you interested in mixed animal medicine? I'm worried about the concentration on agriculture and not getting enough small animal experience
Honestly, I'm here right now touring the area, it's AMAZING and a once in a lifetime opportunity. You should come!I am seriously considering Dublin, I'm deciding between WSU and CSU! If I can figure out all the details and how to make Dublin work I will be there too!
