How does your family feel about you attending veterinary school? Do you have a strong support system?
Four years of success in Auburn University's veterinary medicine program requires the ultimate commitment of time and effort. Your interviewers need to know that you would have the required support for your heavy and challenging workload if you were accepted into their program.
"My family is incredibly proud of me for attending veterinarian school and is ready to support me mentally and emotionally over the next four years. I know success at Auburn University will require all my time and effort, and I am ready to take on this challenge. If I'm fortunate enough to be accepted here, my two sisters and their families are very close in proximity, and I'd get to spend holidays with them."
Openly and honestly discuss your support system and how your family and friends express their excitement for your future career. Reiterate that you know the commitment success in Auburn University's program will take, and explain that your close family is ready to support you. You can also mention anyone in your family who may have had a similar path in the veterinary medicine industry.
