Hello, Class of 2028: Congratulations on your accomplishments-we are looking forward to seeing you in August and working with you the next four years. Below are some important dates and information as you prepare for classes in August. * Please mark your calendars and save the following dates: * August 22 & 23, 2024 Class of 2028 Orientation at UNL. Orientation is mandatory. More information about Orientation and times will be provided later. You will not travel to Ames, Iowa for Orientation or White Coat Ceremony (you do not need to RSVP for the ISU White Coat Ceremony). See below for information about your White Coat Ceremony. * May 18-23 and May 25-30, 2025 Production Animal Immersion Experience at the Great Plains Veterinary Educational Center (GPVEC) near Clay Center, NE. This mandatory experience is part of VMED 512 Foundations in Veterinary Medicine class. The VM1s will be split into two groups (groups to be determined). Each group will stay at GPVEC for five days, five nights during this time and participate in an immersive production animal experience. We realize these dates fall during Memorial Day weekend. More information will be provided later. * Spring semester, 2026 Class of 2028 White Coat Ceremony. Date and more information will be provided later. * May 18, 2026 Class of 2028 Transition to ISU Orientation at ISU. Attendance is mandatory. Hosted by Iowa State University College of Veterinary Medicine to assist with your transition to Iowa State University. More information from ISU provided later. * I have created a listserv for the Class of 2028. The address is: ppvm2028(a)lists.unl.edu<mailto:ppvm2028@lists.unl.edu> Messages sent through this listserv will go to all students in the Class of 2028. The listserv will be used by the PPVM office to communicate with your class in the future. You are welcome to use this listserv to communicate with your classmates but please be aware than myself, Dr. McFee, Barb and other School staff are also on the listserv and will receive any message sent. Please keep communications professional and appropriate. Right now, the listserv uses the email address listed on your VMCAS application. Once you have set up your "@iastate.edu" account, we will use your ISU email address exclusively. * Regarding your ISU email addresses, your ISU ID number are available. Please email me when you are ready for your ISU ID number, and I'll send it to you. Once you have your ISU ID number, you can register your ISU Net-ID and claim your ISU email address. When you have your ISU email address, please let me know so I can update the Class of 2028 listserv to your ISU address. * Once you have your ISU email address, you will also be added to the UNL Canvas PPVM Training course and the PPVM Student Resources course. We will send you more information about required training later this summer. * You will enroll in your fall 2024 core courses using UNL MyRED. Attached is the tentative fall 2024 schedule and courses that you need to enroll in. You will be assigned a group (A or B) for Anatomy and Foundations later this summer. Course descriptions for all VMED courses are available in the online catalog: https://catalog.unl.edu/graduate-professional/courses/vmed/ * Information about electives and a supply list will be sent out this summer. Textbook information will be available in UNL MyRED after you have enrolled in classes. * Note that all incoming ISU CVM students are required to purchase a mobile (tablet) computer through an ISU CVM negotiated bulk purchase agreement. The cost of the tablet and associate warranty and services will be charged to your UNL student account. The cost of the tablet will be factored into your financial aid award offer. Tablets will be distributed during your Orientation in August. * Remember that your financial aid is processed through ISU. If you have any financial aid questions, please contact the ISU Office of Student Financial Aid at vmfinancialaid(a)iastate.edu<mailto:vmfinancialaid@iastate.edu> or 515-294-2223. Let them know that you are in the PPVM program. If you are interested in the Health Professional Student Loan (HPSL), I have not heard any additional information about how to provide your parental information. * PPVM always follows the Iowa State University spring semester academic schedule. For spring 2025 and future dates, please refer to the ISU academic calendar. https://www.registrar.iastate.edu/calendar/future#2026 Fall semesters follow the UNL semester academic schedule. * Don't forget the following deadlines: * July 3, 2024 spring 2024 official transcripts submitted to ppvm(a)unl.edu<mailto:ppvm@unl.edu> if you are completed required coursework the spring 2024 semester * July 3, 2024 ISU Net-ID and ISU email registration deadline * July 29, 2024 UNL and ISU MMR immunization documentation deadline * July 29, 2024 UNL/ISU rabies vaccination documentation deadline OR sign up for the UNL rabies clinic Please let us know if you have any questions.
