If that holds true; that'd be Valentine's day!
I need serious help... if it comes to the point where I have to decide can someone make me an arguement for why MN would be the better choice over Mizzou!? I loved them both so much and I don't see how I could go wrong either way! Any pointers on how you choose??

@supershorty--this one is for you!
I declined my interview, but have to say that it sounds wonderful there. I am sure "supershorty" can expand on that. Calling supershorty! You could also look at the pros and cons in the thread where people wrote about each particular school. Overall cost is something to consider as well. Also ask whether they have what you want (for example, some schools don't have certain programs--such as shelter med or mixed animal, etc).
What did people wear to the tour of the Leatherdale equine center? i was probably going to wear black pants and a nice sweater or button down ... but don't want to seem under dressed. any input would be appreciated!
I wore black jeans and a sweater and that was totally fine! Some people were wearing blue jeans and a sweatshirt!
I changed into jeans before the tour. Some people were still wearing their interview attire and others had on jeans.What did people wear to the tour of the Leatherdale equine center? i was probably going to wear black pants and a nice sweater or button down ... but don't want to seem under dressed. any input would be appreciated!

Another factor to consider is the feeling you get when you are at the school during interviews. If you have not yet interviewed at both, then observe that. If you have, then picture yourself at each school. Contact students. Ask about things that are important to you. Get a broad picture. Don't worry about this now. I, too, am struggling with my choice. But I have until April! One day it is one school, another day it is another. I am contacting students and different people to gather more information. Ultimately, I know that I will be happy at any school I choose. But I want to make a powerful choice and not rush it. There is no rush. Yes, I wanted to start looking for housing, etc. But this is important. Relax. It's only February!Cost isn't an issue I'd be instate at MN but could get instate at Mizzou after a year which results in a tuition cost of nearly the same amount after the 4 years. I'm not 100% certain what I want to do but both offer enough of a variety that I know that when I decide that won't be an issue...ugghhh this is difficult!

I am with kcoughli - go where it is cheaper. But if it really works out approximately the same:
What are your career goals and where do you want to end up geographically?
That info would help with advice.
I'm really interested in animal rehab(not sure if I'm leaning towards small, large, exotic) but also not 100% sure if I want to go down the specialization route...if not I'm looking into small animal or equine...honestly I have so many interests that I'll have to get started to really get a better grasp of where I for sure want to go!
Geographically I'm not particular at all...I did my undergrad at Missouri and grew up in MN so I know both places pretty well but I'm also open to moving elsewhere too!
Sorry this probably doesn't help my case AT ALL

Hello friends! How structured is the equine tour? I RSVP'd and really wanted to go but a problem came up with my travel accommodations and I won't be able to make it. Do you think I need to email someone? Or is there no check in or anything?
It's not super structured, it's very casual if you can't make it you'll be okay It is a very cool place though I'm sorry you'll miss the tour!
I found a great video of Leatherdale on youtube I sent to my family who were unable to make it to my interview. I would definitely check it out if you have time, the facilities are really impressive!
1/3 academic, 1/3 non-academic, 1/3 interviewDoes anyone know how heavily the interview weighs on the admissions process? I feel awesome about my interview, not so awesome about my grades, and great about my GRE/experiences and don't know if I should start getting excited
Fell in love with Minnesota today, wow what a cool school. How'd everyone else feel? I also REALLY enjoyed the two interviewers I had.
So awesome! They said everyone should be hearing by the end of the upcoming week and accepted students will be called! Good luck .Also, I learned about 1,001 fun things to do in the Twin Cities from the students who volunteered this weekend! SO many activities but not feeling overwhelmed by a huge city. And I took my dog to a brewery last night which I consider a score.

Crossing my fingers for you all!
You were on campus and didn't come visit me on the necropsy floor????You don't even exist. I've been there three days for interviews now and not once have you come said hi.

Is today going to be the day?!
My interview was this past weekend and they told our group of interviewees that calls and emails will be going out by the end of this week!I take it that it wasn't? Or is everyone just passed out from the good or bad news?
It'll be soon! Hopefully!
Officially, the word we were supposed to give people was "the latter half of the month." In the past few years it's been toward the earlier part of that (like, now), but give them until end of next week before you really start calling!
