No takers for OSU? Knee deep in 4th year and LOVING IT.
Feel free to ask any questions
Feel free to ask any questions
I'm applying... I think the reason there isn't a thread yet is that their supplement isn't available.
The experience hours are scaring me more... I'm more like 2500 vet, and like 300 animal....
"Veterinary and animal experience hours were primarily verified during the file review and interview." What does this mean? They ask you questions about your experiences to make sure you actually did them?

Hey!! I was on the waitlist for the class of 2019 but did not get in this year. I am reapplying this cycle though.
I did do a file review which I feel will help me especially with the interview portion if I am offered an interview again. There were only minor things thst i could improve so i am hopeful that my second time applying will be successful! I also have almost 1000 more hours experience even though experience was not an area they thought i needed improvement in from my file review. The more the better in my opinion! Still a little nervous applying this year though.
Good luck to everyone applying this round! I will be starting my first year as a Buckeye in a little over 2 weeks! I'm happy to answer any application-related questions and once I get started in Columbus, any class-related questions as well!
I'm applying again. I'm in-state and it's going to be my alma mater for my BS and MPH, so....
I interviewed last year and did a file review but the suggestions for improvement were vague and the impression I was left with was "you'll probably do better next year." I guess that I'll find out if that's true.
Same here We're currently working on moving furniture, etc. Sounds like we're going to have a busy orientation!
Who did your file review? If possible, try and talk to Shayna Mohr. She was very helpful to me throughout the application process and very quick to respond to questions.
Hello all! I just received an email to create an account- is this what everyone else received? Will there be an additional email for the supplemental? Thank you!
Wow, and I just emailed April... my apologies ... I will be patient.I would ask everyone applying to OSU this year to be patient with admissions/staff at this time, as the college is going through a very difficult/emotional few days.

i can't find it on the website, but I made an account??Once you create an account you will be able to access the supplemental application through OSU's website.

Oh my gosh, what happened? I'm so out of the loop.I would ask everyone applying to OSU this year to be patient with admissions/staff at this time, as the college is going through a very difficult/emotional few days.
According to the website, a faculty member and a student both passed away very recently.. :/Oh my gosh, what happened? I'm so out of the loop.
We lost a second year student last week. It was really unexpected and affected everyone here, even those that didn't really know him. Thankfully, our deans and administration are fantastic and really worked hard to make sure we're all doing ok. They even moved our classes and exams so we could support each other.Oh my gosh, what happened? I'm so out of the loop.

I've got no bones about waiting- especially with tragedies like those transpiring.I was not aware of the faculty member's passing, but yes, that did happen as well.
For those curious, things are slowly getting back to normal. If you're waiting on information from someone, go ahead and ask
We've got an awesome community here. All this turmoil has proven that beyond a shadow of a doubt.
Hey everyone, i'm very confused- is the supplemental really only a few questions regarding residency and stuff? no essays or tables to fill up? I feel like im missing something ... i'm not being able to pay because my application is pending until they receive my fee waiver ...but im scared because I thought you only a few days to submit the supplemental but in the email I got, the deadline is November 15 -it all seems to good to be true :/
They have recently updated the pre-reqs and it looks like a lot has changed. You can check out the requirements on the website here: http://vet.osu.edu/education/prerequisitesNot a 2020-er (hopefully a 2021!) but I figured this was a good place to ask since you guys are applying with OSU's new prerequisite structure...
I was under the impression that I had until the spring semester of the year I graduate to finish all my prerequisites. Today, someone who is applying to OSU this year tried to tell me that I can only have one prerequisite outstanding for that spring semester? Is this right?
Thanks guys!
"No more than one required prerequisite course may remain to be completed after autumn term of the academic year in which you apply."
If you're applying for class of 2021 next fall, you need to have 3 of the 4 capstone courses* completed by the end of next year and all of them completed by the Spring of 2017. That's how I understand it. If you are still worried, call OSU admissions and ask (or e-mail).
*The capstones are the true "required" courses now (physiology, biochem, microbio, and speech). The other prereqs can be met through a variety of coursework that you'll hopefully have by that time by sheer virtue of being pre-vet and taking GEC's (lower chemistries, physics, biologies, humanities, etc.).
