When are course marks due?

Hey, I am not applying to OVC this year but I was just wondering.. are the courses (8 prereqs & 2 full time semester marks) due before March 1st or January 1st? Because on the Academic Background Form it says "All subject requirements must be met prior to January 1" but on the OVC website it says "March 1 by 4PM: Background Information Form, References, and Transcripts" however with an asterisk saying"*Although the deadline is January 1st please keep in mind that the university is closed on this date. It is strongly recommended that you submit your application form and payment in advance of this date." I am asking because my university seems to upload their marks past January 1. Thanks.

It just means you have to have all the courses you're using completed by Jan 1 (Aka the first semester of the year you're applying). Transcripts aren't due until March 1st

Oh, so its just saying the first semester is acceptable while the second semester is not? So even if marks are posted lets say late January since it is part of 1st sem its all good? Thank you!

Exactly! it's just the ouac application and mcat score that's due by Jan 1st.

Ok thanks so much. I know this is a random question but how did you start volunteering at the vets? I have yet to volunteer and don't know how I should get started. :K

I basically called all the vets in my area until one of them said they took volunteers (not all of them do). There was also a clinic in my area that is very busy and is known for accepting volunteers, I actually take my dog there so I talked to the vet when I was there one time. Call or visit (even better) every clinic you can! Once you start making connections, more opportunities will come up. Good luck!
