Are these the only two topics for the essay and if so do you have an option or do they choose for you?

I had Dr. Sweeney, but just treat it as if it was a regular interview, show them that you're not only interested in vet med but also why you are interested in SGU and have some questions prepared for you to ask him/her at the end of the interview.

Good luck!

There was another one... Something along the lines of an event that made an impact in your adult life. And you get a choice, so pick the one you are most comfortable with.

Good luck!

Thanks!!! Louisiana.Was interviewed in New Orleans on Jan. 19. Have you heard anything yet?

Hi all! This was my time scheme if any of you were wondering how long it took to hear back from St. George's.
Granted interview: November 13th
Interview: January 20th (Received interview info like a week before)
Accepted: February 23rd

I'm really beginning to get worried that I haven't heard back yet. My interview was Jan 17th! I emailed Krista last week and she said I should be hearing any day now. ARGH.

Hi there!
I am still working on my application, but I am planning to apply to the DVM/MPH degree program. What program are you applying to?

I already got accepted into the DVM program . Now I'm thinking about a MSc in conservation medicine but I'm not sure if it will be too much to handle doing a dual degree...

before you sign up for this master's degree be sure to get opinions from current faculty and students about what this master's sets you up for. one of my classmates came in as a dual for this program and dropped it quickly after realizing it was not at all what she wanted (i think the advice given to her was something along the lines of it will set you up for more managerial rather than field type work and that she certainly didnt need a masters to do any of the exotics/wildlife work she planned on doing)

Thanks! Will definitely do some research about it before signing up

Thanks for the heads up. I'm sorry you didn't get in, I hope you're doing OK and not too disappointed. I've been rejected from everywhere I've applied in the US so I know that's easier said than done...

Hey guys,
For those of you still waiting here is my time frame and stats if it helps ease your mind or in any way

Overall GPA 3.3
Prerequisite GPA 3.59
GRE score 303
Vet experience 2000+ hours
Animal experience
I was raised on a farm with everything from flying squirrels to horses and cattle.
Waterfowl and poultry as well as peafowl.

I was granted an interview in late December. I interviewed with Dr. Ashley Tahir in New Orleans on January 19, and received an acceptance via email on February 23.

Hope this helps. Good luck.

Also I applied to Mississippi and LSU and got rejected from both. FYI

did you get an email from them as well? or just snail mail?

Just a letter in the mail!

Eek. I just had a skype interview tonight. im super super nervous!! I feel like it went ok, but now thinking back I feel I could have spoken more clear about things and totally forgot to mention things I did want to mention...What were your stats, if you dont mind me asking? I have a lower GPA, so just wondering....there is so much back and forth about their average GPA they accept it makes me nervous!!

Sorry you didnt get in =( Did you apply elsewhere?

I got an email acceptance. I was accepted in the VFP, but I may have gotten a letter to my home. I just do not know since I am in college.

Hi!
So I applied early March and my application status says under Decision: "Interview, Response Required". Does this mean I have an interview and they are waiting for my response? Or is this unofficial and I still need an email from them?

Thanks!

Just got notified about my interview! Any pointers (what type of questions do they ask, etc.)??

Thanks

I'm sending in my deposit today for the Jan 2013 class! I'm so excited! My friend just told me about this forum, so I was hoping to meet some people from my class.

Found out that I was accepted for January 2014 (waitlisted for August) today!!! Can't wait to meet some of you in January

Yay congrats to both of you!

just sent my deposit for the January 2014 class! can't wait to meet all of you!

Congrats to you guys!
On one of the many things they emailed after the acceptance there was a facebook page link for Jan2014 class. Be sure you join so you can get some helpful advice, questioned answered by upper terms, and meet all of us starting in Jan!
