I am a Michigan resident but not an undergrad at State- I go to CMU in Mount Pleasant. I went online to check out the stats for incoming MSU vet students and saw that the average there is about a 3.6 for those admitted. Yet, I have a few friends/aquaintances that have had like a 3.8 and not been chosen for admission to the program. More than likely my undergraduate GPA will be around a 3.5 or 3.6 because I didn't do so hot my freshman year. However, I will have a fair amount of experience and I am generally a good test taker.
I am wondering if I should rethink Michigan residency and try to apply elsewhere after moving? I was considering U of Wisconsin or Oregon State, maybe even Purdue. I am just afraid I won't get into MSU and then I will have to put vet school off while I move somewhere else and get established there.
What is your take on this? Is MSU particularly difficult to get into for any reason?
