- Talking to/interviewing alumni of the University of Tennessee.
- Attending an open house at the University of Tennessee.

"I researched several schools before applying to the University of Tennessee. After spending hours researching your website and reading news articles, I interviewed some alumni I know and spoke with a couple of your current students in the veterinary program. Last year, I attended the open house here as well. Your school left a very positive impression on me, which is why I chose to apply here."
