So OSU has this website where you can follow the status of your application. My application has moved from “review” to “Your application has been referred to the College of Veterinary Medicine for admissions consideration.” Woo hoo!

How I did it: Well I started the day the application came out in June. Finished it during the summer, then I had to wait for my evaluators to finish their part. I finished it and did a little dance. Now I just get to wait. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I went to the Red Cross donor website where I found a list of blood drives in my area. I found one that was a little over a mile from where I am staying. I walked down, showed them my donor card and let them drain me. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I decided what features I wanted and searched techy sites for reviews of cameras with those features. Then I found buyer reviews of these cameras. Comparing these reviews with price I decided on the Fujifilm Finepix Z33WP. I placed it in my online cart and waited. Prices went up, and prices went down. Finally after visiting the page for the hundredth time I decided that it was at the best price I was going to get. So click...I bought it! … Read how I did it…
See all "How I Did It" stories...
I’ve been writing a lot this week, so maybe I’ll be getting this done soon.
VMCA finished!
Supplemental apps finished!
Transcripts sent in!
GRE scores sent in!
Fees paid!
So now I just get to wait and see what happens. Here’s hoping they like what they see.
