I'm bringing my boyfriend with me as well- if I get in, he's making the move too, so we want to explore the area together.

I have my flight booked for the 13th and received an interview invite from Illinois for the 13th-their ONLY interview day. Any advice or opinions?
So I have a question about the pizza party/facility tour evening the night before interviews. I know it is casual but are dockers and a polo TOO casual for that evening? obviously the interview is gonna be a lot more dressed up.
Less than a month before interviews!!! I'm excited.
Noticing something here....just how many of us interviewing are from Texas...?
BearKat, I know you are. Your name gives it away.
Oh, and I'm more excited than nervous. I can't wait to see the campus...plus I'll hear back from Mississippi before Western, so I'll be one step closer!
Hey guys,
Just wanted to wish y'all good luck! I interviewed at Mississippi last year (waitlisted and nothing came of it..), but I LOVED the campus! The vet school is separate from the main campus and the study area for the 1st year students is AMAZING!!! Plus, everyone there is so nice...it really takes a lot of the pressure off during the interview!
I was telling my bf last year that if Mississippi State and CSU (my top choice) were put side by side, based on their teaching facilities, in some random location (not Starkville or Fort Collins), I'd choose Miss. every time! I absolutely loved it!
Keep us posted!
When do we hear from Mississippi regarding a decision? I must have missed that part.
Reading back on last year's thread, those interviewees were called/emailed the next week. I think an email I got said we are notified of the decision by the end of February.

Ha, I'm at the Austin airport right now. I'll be in Ontario around 11am PST. I'm excited too!
Good idea! Still very excited about my Mississippi interview I'd love to hear what a MSU vet student would have to say about living in Starkville.
Interviews are approaching fast! I'm so excited. Is it ok to wear jeans and a nice shirt to the pizza party? I'll be wearing a suit to the interview. What do mentors do exactly?Also sign up sheets to be mentors just went up on Friday so we will be getting our assignments any day now, so you may hear from your mentors soon. Though you may not (last year I never heard from my "mentor").

Thanks. I can't wait!Yup, I wore jeans to the pizza party - it's mainly just a meet and greet. You stand around the front entrance eating pizza and chatting with fellow interviewees and your mentor. Then at a certain point - you will get a tour of the CVM.
Mentors are supposed to help you - answer any questions you may have. They are supposed to meet you at the pizza party and possibly before your interview - but it depends on classes and timing.
Some mentors email their applicants before interview date, but mine never did.
Is anyone interviewing on valentines day? I will be and I'm so excited to meet everyone!

Yay Jalyndani and BearKat17! Will you guys be at the pizza party too on the 13? I will be and I plan on wearing black pants and a white sweater however, if the weather continues to be like this, I may have to change my outfit lol
Has anyone received any more information regarding interviews? I'm interviewing on the 8th but haven't heard anything yet other than the info from the initial interview invite that we all got...
Hey does anyone know how long the pizza party lasts? Also is it bad if you are a little late? My dad is traveling up from Jackson and won't make it there until 6. Should I just tell him not to come?
By the way... Is anyone interviewing on the 7th?? I'm interviewing on the 7th, pizza party on the 6th.
Futuredvm89- I just looked at the email again and mine says 5:30-7:30 for the pizza party. Does yours say 6:00? Are you a ms resident??I would think that it would be okay to be late since the party is optional. But assuming that the party doesn't start until 6 (I think) you should be okay. I will be interviewing on the 7th, so I will most definitely be at the pizza party

Very Cool, I didn't know there were any other residents on this Forum. Are you and your friend both interviewing? Do you live in Starkville?
See you monday night at the pizza party!Yes we are both interviewing but we are not from Starkville. Ive always been on the forum but I have never commented on anything. This is my first year applying so I thought it was about time for me to start posting
My friend and I are going to be staying at the Days Inn, but we we're planning on renting a car so we have the issue of actually getting to the school for the interview. If anyone is going to have a car and wouldn't mind picking us up on the way to the school for the Monday 2/13 interview, we'd be more than happy to give you gas money.
Maybe if we can't find a person with a car we can all split a cab so it'll be even cheaper?Ditto to that! I will also be at the Days Inn haha
Does everyone go alone on interview day or do parents/significant others attend as well?
