But they sent another email explaining they may be even later?
And they are closed from dec 23 to jan 4, so it could be any time up until the 23rd
No I am really having to resist the urge to call because I go to work at 4:00, which would only be 3:00 in Mississippi!
I would really like them to send out those emails!
That late?! Ughh maybe calling wouldn't hurt....
If you call, share your scoop! Good luck everyone... less than 12 hours until the wait is over!
That is my issue, I have a break but not soon enough!
Just got my invite for February 4th! Good luck to everyone else - hope everyone here gets one!!

So excited!
Rejected
Interviewing on the 2nd!
February 11th!
Rejected but accepted elsewhere! Good luck to everyone who got an interview. 🙂
So sorry to hear =(
Rejected. Frustrated because I got an interview last year. Wondering if it's because I applied as OOS this year and was IS last year.
I'm so sorry. I know the feeling of rejection. Hopefully Missy will let you know what you can do to improve for next cycle
can you give us insight on how the interview went for you? was it good or bad? stressful? good southern welcome?

OOS, interview Feb 4th! 🙂
random question: Does anyone know if students can get a job working in the large animal or small animal hospitals?
As vet students? I think you can.
Has anyone had to change their interview date because of conflict?
Anybody know why MSU's semester starts in June? Does each class year complete a summer term or is it a first year thing?

I believe that MSU is similar to Mizzou in that they have a 2+2 program (2 years in class, 2 years in clinics), and so they start a bit earlier (in contrast to Mizzou running until late June), to fit everything in. Of course, someone at MSU would be able to fill you in a bit more. 🙂
As far as the interview goes...
I was mostly asked about things on my application - research I had done, different extra-curricular activities during college, my experience in shadowing/working with animals, etc. They also asked about myself as a person (how other people would describe me, what my strengths were, why I should be chosen as part of the class, etc.) I think this was the weakest part of my interview, mostly because I hadn't thoroughly thought of answers and also because I didn't want to come off as bragging (so phraseology of this portion is a big deal to me 😛). I also recall them asking about my perception of a vet in the community was, if anything interesting was happening in current events in the vet world, etc. They seemed like very broad, open ended questions. I know some of those who interviewed with a different panel got asked questions about specific scenarios as well. So I guess it really depended. Good luck to y'all!

Did anyone else RSVP by email?
if so did you receive a confirmation email that they got your RSVP? I'm debating whether I should call them too.
