However, don't try to make excuses. Do not repeat information that is contained elsewhere in your application unless it is something unique that deserves special attention or amplification. Veterinary medical schools and other health professions schools require applicants to submit letters written by individual faculty members. In some cases a special evaluation form must be completed as well. In almost all cases, a letter from a health professional is also either required or highly desirable.
Every professional school is unique in the way it handles interviews.
Some interview students in small groups, some use a single interview with a faculty member or administrator, while others schedule as many as 5 interviews per applicant. The strategy the applicant wants to use is different for each type of interview, so it is helpful to talk with a pre-health professions advisor about a school's interview format before going to an interview. The interview is a formal event, and the interviewee should be as professional as possible throughout the process. It is a good idea to visit the Career Development Center for interview hints and to schedule a mock interview. I Wish I Had Asked.
