Understanding the Admission Process

Assessment

The Admissions Committee recommends students for admission to the program on the basis of academic and non-academic factors. Meeting UCVM’s stated academic requirements does not guarantee that an applicant will be offered an interview, however, those individuals who meet the minimum academic standards will be eligible for consideration.

Interviews

The process that identifies the rank order by which applicants will be considered for interviews is solely based on academic performance, specifically the average GPA of the last four full-time undergraduate terms of study.

Decision

Following the Interview day, the process that identifies the final rank order by which applicants will be offered admission is:

• Average GPA of last 4 full-time undergraduate terms: 30%
• MMI performance: 45%
• Essay performance: 20%
• References: 5%
