OOS acceptance!!
OOS waitlisted.. aka "If you thought your anxiety was high already, we've got news for ya..." haha
Just kidding, congratulations to those accepted! I hope to hear some good news in the coming months and be invited to join you in the fall!
ME TOO!!! So excited!Im gonna be a gator!!!!!!!!!! IS ACCEPTED
Yay! CongratsME TOO!!! So excited!
It sounds like from their email they won’t call us till after April 15 but idk honestlyOOS alternate. Really really hoping I get in. Does anybody know how soon they will start calling people off the waitlist?
I believe we had somebody on SDN called off in March last year, so I don't think they necessarily wait for the April 15th deadline. It will depend on how soon people decline their spots.OOS alternate. Really really hoping I get in. Does anybody know how soon they will start calling people off the waitlist?
Do you know if they call OOS people if an OOS person declines their seat and same for IS or is it just one list for both IS and OOS and they call in the order of the list if someone declines?I believe we had somebody on SDN called off in March last year, so I don't think they necessarily wait for the April 15th deadline.

EDIT: Yeah just checked the previous year's thread. Someone got the call on March 6. I think a fair number of OOSers came off the waitlist last year - I was also a waitlist student, although I didn't get the call until April 16.
I'm honestly not sure. I just assumed they were separate. Probably best to ask UF.Do you know if they call OOS people if an OOS person declines their seat and same for IS or is it just one list for both IS and OOS and they call in the order of the list if someone declines?
Do any current students have any advice on housing? Do older students often look for housing or is it best to seek out a place on your own? I’d like a roommate and need some advice!
Does anyone know the address I’m supposed to send final transcripts to?
Looks like for the dual degree program you have to apply for the MPH program by March 1stDoes anyone know if we can choose to pursue the MPH degree at any point during vet school, or is this our only opportunity to apply?
I'm not an MPH student, but I think what I remember is that ideally they'd like you to apply by March 1st because you would take some classes this summer. However, you can apply later if you talk to the coordinator - you just may need to take an extra semester after you finish your DVM to finish your MPH. I'd contact the coordinator to confirm that for sure. There is probably a point (maybe after first year?) where it's too late period because you'd be too far behind on classes.Does anyone know if we can choose to pursue the MPH degree at any point during vet school, or is this our only opportunity to apply?

How long did it take for those of you who have already accepted your seats to get the email from Florida Graduate Office? It said within 48 hours but I haven’t gotten one yet and it’s been more than 48 hours
Did you check your junk mail??
Yes and it’s empty
I didn’t get the email from the Florida graduate office either but I received a confirmation emailHow long did it take for those of you who have already accepted your seats to get the email from Florida Graduate Office?

Thanks for this! I’ll start looking!Sometimes there are people from upper classes that look for roommates but I do remember that once our class facebook page got made that people posted for roommates and such. A lot of vet students live in treehouse which is an apartment complex pretty close to the school or along the 35 bus route (the only bus that stops relatively close to the vet school).
Thanks for this! I’ll start looking!
When the FB group is up will someone share the link please? I’m trying to figure out some family stuff before confirming my seat and deposit but I’m 99.9% sure I’m coming to UF and want to get housing/meet everyone! This is so exciting! Congrats everyone
When I first began my journey to apply to UF vet school animal nutrition was required and allowed to be taken the summer before classes. Does anyone know if this is still a requirement? I see no mention on the website and have not taken the course either. Thought I would ask before I bug the admissions office. I know they are slammed with emails.
I've been using this website for prereqs: https://www.aavmc.org/data/files/vmcas/prereqchart.pdf and they don't show anything about animal nutrition!When I first began my journey to apply to UF vet school animal nutrition was required and allowed to be taken the summer before classes.

Thanks guys! I will email to confirm but since I can’t find anything about it, it must be removed.I've been using this website for prereqs: https://www.aavmc.org/data/files/vmcas/prereqchart.pdf and they don't show anything about animal nutrition!
Also when I was at my interview they said my only missing prerequisite was microbiology (which I was taking last fall), and I haven't taken animal nutrition and they said nothing about that.
I would wait one more day. I got that email yesterday morning so my 48 hours would be tomorrow morning.
Did you get the email yet?
Schedules for this semester are posted online: Schedules & Booklist I think the best description is a modified block schedule. Most classes are only a few weeks, but they stagger the start and end dates so we don't start or end a set of classes all at once.I’m not sure if this already has been asked but how is the semester/curriculum set up at UF? Do we have a new class every few weeks?
