Interview dates contradiction

[c23]

Hi Everyone,
I'm hoping someone on here can confirm the approximate date range that interview invitations are sent out for domestic applicants, and also when the interviews are. I have found contradicting information on websites.

This OVC page (https://www.ovc.uoguelph.ca/recruitment/en/applyingtodvm/selectionprocess.asp) states that invitations are sent out in mid-May for interviews in June. This seems to align with a reddit thread from 2022 of someone waiting for invitations to be sent (https://www.reddit.com/r/uoguelph/comments/tbvz1b/ovc_applicants_2022/). However, last year I had friends announcing acceptances within the second or third week of June, which seems way too soon if interviews were not until the first week of June.

(https://www.ovc.uoguelph.ca/dvm-program-application/)
The Guelph website at the bottom of this page under "The Selection Process, Stage 3: Virtual Interviews", states that invitations are sent out in late April for interviews in May. 

Could someone please confirm which of these is accurate, as well as if we know that interviews will be virtual from now on and the format, or if they are back to regular MMI from before covid.

Thanks:)

Hi there,
We had our interview dates released to us mid-may last year and interviews were in early June. We found out the decisions mid-June. Not sure if anything would be different this year or not.

We've updated the OVC website as the interviews have been moved to earlier in May.

Hi Elizabeth! Do you by chance know when interview invites are expected to come out this year?

I don't think I've ever seen a clear answer to this kind of question. It will probably be quite soon, keep checking WebAdvisor. Last year, the status on WebAdvisor updated before I got an email. I used to check twice a day lol, but if you can avoid doing that to yourself it's probably a good call

As a rule we wait until after the exam period is over so students can focus on their studies. Good luck everyone
