Hi. I just joined this site but have been looking at it for awhile now. I am a senior in high school deciding where to go to college next year (hoping to go on to vet school) and one of my options is MSU's Early Entry Program.
I was accepted and know all the general info about it, i.e. can be done in 7 years, conditional acceptance, etc. But I would love to hear any advice from people who are in this program or have been in it.
I know for sure that I want to be a vet (have been volunteering for awhile with animals and in a vet clinic, etc so I have confirmed this is what I want to do. And I also know that getting a position in any vet school is very hard to do. But my parents are concerned about the ranking of MSU vet school by U.S. News Report, though from my understanding and what I have heard so far those rankings aren't very informative or accurate? They seem to think that I should go to a higher ranked undergrad and then apply to vet schools.
Does it matter what vet school you go to (in terms of future vet career)?
Thank you for any advice!!
P.S. I have also applied to Purdue's Vet Scholars Program and am waiting to hear back from them to see if I get an interview. So if anyone has any experience or knowledge with that program as well that would also be great!
