The interviewers would like to know the types of schools catching your interest to understand if the University of Tennessee will meet your specific needs and educational desires or goals. Be transparent when answering this question, but avoid saying anything offensive, such as 'this school is my last choice.' Choose the number one reason you want to attend the University of Tennessee and focus on that.

"I have applied to four other schools, but the University of Tennessee is number one on my list. Those schools are A, B, C, and D. My interest in the University of Tennessee is strong because you are highly regarded in the veterinary medicine industry. The reputation of the University of Tennessee is unmatched. I would be proud to say that I graduated from this school."

The interviewers do not expect the University of Tennessee to be the only school you have applied to. However, they want to hear that their college ranks high on your list as they want students who want to be accepted into their veterinary program.
