Application Question

[guest2972]

Hi! 

I know we don't enter any extracurricular or activities on our OUAC internal transfer form UNLESS there was an 8 month gap period in post secondary studies. Does this mean an 8 month gap since we have taken ANY courses at the university of guelph or since your last full time semester?

I finished one course during the summer that went towards my degree this August but, I have not been in a full time semester since april. Would those 8 months be counted from april or august?

Our website doesn't say that ... we only need extracurricular activities in the BIF not on OUAC.

I'm hoping to apply next year. Out of curiosity, how many activities are we allowed to submit for each of vet, animal, and extracurricular experience?

Also, why did OVC decide not to include math/physics courses as prerequisites? Personally, I did very well in those areas of study, hence why I'm curious

It does say that here on page 1: admission.uoguelph.ca/sites/default/files/docs/DVMApplicationFAQs_2018.pdf

I believe you are allowed to submit 6 experiences per section (vet, animal and extracurricular are each their own sections). As for the math/physics question, I am unsure!

Thanks 'correction' I see that but that is to clarify gaps in your education as opposed to experience related to applying, if that makes sense.
