Vet school is nothing like you expect it to be. You will do things that push you out of your comfort zone and interact with people from all walks of life starting on day one. Say yes to opportunities that come about because you never know where they might take you. Make those connections with your classmates early on because those people are going to be with you through all the good times and hard times. Get to know your professors and the clinicians as they are full of knowledge and are passionate about helping us become the best future doctors we can be.<\/p>\n\n        <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wsu-accordion\">\r\n    <h3 id=\"unique-id-1__63314\" class=\"wsu-accordion__title\">\r\n        <button class=\"wsu-accordion__title-button wsu-accordion--toggle\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"unique-id-1__content\">What is your favorite part of the program?<\/button>\r\n    <\/h3>\r\n    <div id=\"unique-id-1__content\" class=\"wsu-accordion__content\" aria-labelledby=\"unique-id-1__63314\">\r\n        <div class=\"wsu-accordion__content-inner\">\r\n            \n\n<p>My favorite part of the program is how I am able to personalize it to me. While we all have to take the same core curriculum, the CVM has made it possible and allowed time for me to individualize how I spend the rest of my time. If I want to go palpate cows in theriogenology club I can. I can go learn to float horses\u2019 teeth in SCAAEP. If I want to become the best in my class at suturing, there are resources and faculty ready to help me pursue that goal. The program works hard to make sure it provides as many opportunities for me as possible and helps me achieve the personal goals I have set for myself.<\/p>\n\n        <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wsu-accordion\">\r\n    <h3 id=\"unique-id-1__49834\" class=\"wsu-accordion__title\">\r\n        <button class=\"wsu-accordion__title-button wsu-accordion--toggle\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"unique-id-1__content\">What would you tell students who have taken a \u201cnon-traditional\u201d route in getting to vet school?<\/button>\r\n    <\/h3>\r\n    <div id=\"unique-id-1__content\" class=\"wsu-accordion__content\" aria-labelledby=\"unique-id-1__49834\">\r\n        <div class=\"wsu-accordion__content-inner\">\r\n            \n\n<p>My biggest advice is do not compare yourself to your classmates. You will have classmates that have taken more courses applicable to vet school in undergrad and may seem way ahead early on. It is easy to feel left behind or like you may not belong. Always remember that you belong there and have what it takes to be successful in the program. Know going in that you are probably starting further behind than some and you may be required to put in extra work, but there are countless resources available to help you be successful. Do not be afraid to utilize them. (Fun fact, I am getting my MBA while also in the DVM program!)<\/p>\n\n        <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wsu-cta \" >\n\t<a \t\t\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/hub.wsu.edu\/dvm-admissions\/connect-with-us\/meet-our-dvm-students\/\"\t\n\t\tclass=\"wsu-button \">\n\t\t\t\n\t\tAll ambassadors\t\t\t<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":11846,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[46],"tags":[44,51],"wsuwp_university_location":[],"wsuwp_university_org":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hub.wsu.edu\/dvm-admissions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1905"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hub.wsu.edu\/dvm-admissions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hub.wsu.edu\/dvm-admissions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hub.wsu.edu\/dvm-admissions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11846"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hub.wsu.edu\/dvm-admissions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1905"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/hub.wsu.edu\/dvm-admissions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1905\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2932,"href":"https:\/\/hub.wsu.edu\/dvm-admissions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1905\/revisions\/2932"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hub.wsu.edu\/dvm-admissions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1905"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hub.wsu.edu\/dvm-admissions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1905"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hub.wsu.edu\/dvm-admissions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1905"},{"taxonomy":"wsuwp_university_location","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hub.wsu.edu\/dvm-admissions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/wsuwp_university_location?post=1905"},{"taxonomy":"wsuwp_university_org","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hub.wsu.edu\/dvm-admissions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/wsuwp_university_org?post=1905"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
