During the multiple mini-interview process that veterinary schools use, many interviewers will gauge the personal and cultural fit of the candidates they are considering for admission. This direct question ensures that you have done your homework on the mission and values of the program and institution you are interviewing with and that you see them as a great fit for yourself.

Be sure to research the mission and values of the school you are interviewing with before your MMI. The program's website will have some great information on its culture, mission, and values.

"As I researched reputable veterinary schools to apply to, I sought very specific qualities about programs that spoke to me personally and professionally. First, I love that part of your vision is to promote interdisciplinary collaboration with biomedical teams and agricultural communities. I believe this is so important in the advancement of veterinary medicine. I envision a future where I can reach across disciplines to develop new therapies. A team-based atmosphere is also very important to me, and I love that this is a part of your core values. Last, I want to attend an institution focused on diversity. A welcoming and respectful environment provides the best opportunity for furthering my education, and I would be thrilled to be accepted here."

In having six to eight minutes to answer a question about how the mission and values of this program appeal to you, you have the time to go into detail on why they do. Try to pick a few statements that appeal to you and then use real-life examples of how you've lived the values of the veterinary school. Don't hesitate to relate the mission to your desire to train and practice as a future veterinarian.
