anyone know if they do file reviews for rejections? I'm curious of their reasoning

Last year they did not

Getting ready for IS interviews next week... What are you guys doing to prepare? I feel like my anxiety will shoot through the roof if I think about the process too much.

I’m extremely anxious about interviews too! I’ve been reviewing common ethical/situational questions and reviewing my answer for things like “tell me about yourself” and “why do you want to be a vet.” But I also haven’t really done verbal practice to the questions because I don’t want to sound rehearsed. I’m trying to keep the mind frame of I’ll do my best and represent myself honestly, and whatever happens, happens.

It's also good to do voice recordings, videos, or talk in front of a mirror just to know your posture, facial expressions, and talking speed. Just a couple of practices to see how you're doing and done!

Don’t believe so. From what I’ve heard, they pull someone off the waitlist who is similar to the person who denied their acceptance rather than by rank

I know this is easy to say and less-than-easy to do, but try not to stress! The WSU interview (and I did several over multiple years) was 100% the lowest-stress of any interviews I did. They are very conversational and are trying to get to know you to make sure that you 1) understand what you're getting into/are ready for vet school and 2) how you will fit into the class culture they're trying to build. My recommendation is to think about scenarios you've encountered in your clinical/shadowing experience that you can bring up in your responses- have a few of these in your back pocket and use them even if the question isn't necessarily a "name a time when xyz" question.

Good luck to all the WA/ID interviewees this week! :soexcited:

They definitely did. It was just formatted differently than previous years. They only had a small window that they did reviews in instead of over several months.

My bad, when I asked them for a review, they refused. I assumed it was the same for everyone
 
What is everyone planning on wearing for the hospital tour during interviews this week? I’ve toured the hospital during undergrad, so I know I don’t really want to wear my interview heels, but I also don’t want to be underdressed if everyone else will be in their interview attire 😅

I was planning on casual dress since my interview isn't for about 3 and a half hours after my scheduled tour. Want to give minimal opportunity for anything to spill/ruin my interview attire.

I definitely wore my interview attire to the hospital tour I did at a different school, but my shoes were pretty comfortable to walk in. I think I’ll probably plan to do that again?

Good luck to those of you with an interview this week! Remember to take a deep breath and relax. Everything will be OK 🙂

If you received a rejection, do your best to improve where you can and don’t give up! I didn’t get accepted my first try. Everyone’s story is different and you will eventually end up where you’re supposed to soon enough.

You are correct. Admissions is no longer conducting file reviews but will meet with applicants for general admissions meetings that aren't going over your specific application.

How did it go?
The process was not as intimidating as I was expecting and interviewers were nice! It was kind of rapid-fire questions style with time for questions at the end. I think I just did okay as far as answering the questions, I guess we’ll see in two weeks! 😬

WSU CVM Classifieds is a FB group where students will post rentals among other things, and admissions will be making a class FB group for you guys as well where you can connect with everyone and find roommates!
