Thanks @DadTwoGirls and @Pathnottaken ,
I was hoping you would each weigh in. I know @DadTwoGirls your daughter did well at UVM. We are headed up there next week. Slightly concerned about food/housing there and students complain about administration a lot.
We missed the COLSA day (and alternate 1/2 day), but I was in touch with them by email today and hope to set something up. They sent me their powerpoint. One think that surprised me is that the UNH vet school acceptance rate (for animal science majors) is only about 84%. I know this is double the national average, but I think it used to be over 90% (UVM’s is).
The other thing I’m interested to know is whether UNH has any articulation agreements with vet schools. UMASS & UVM tout opportunities to apply (sometimes early) to Tufts, Edinburgh and/or Melbourne, & others. Can’t find a peep in the UNH materials about anything like this.
@DadTwoGirls the admitted class info for Tufts always has more UMASS kids. Sometimes 4, 6, one year I saw 15! But UVM and UNH are often next. Not many from UMAINE
Anyway, we’re still thinking! My son spent tonight looking at course requirements and selections in each major at UNH and is now thinking about a double major or minor. I’m glad he is giving it due consideration.
