Many applications give you options on essays.

Including high school accomplishments in a graduate school application?
I have not applied to graduate/veterinary school yet, but I am keeping a document of all of my accomplishments and experiences to refer to when I need them. I would like to include my study abroad experiences from high school (I studied abroad in 5 countries). I did not have the opportunity to study abroad in undergrad (money constraints), but I feel as though these experiences were unforgettable to me. I read that people include work hours from high school throughout college on vet apps, so I was wondering if this isn't too different. #college #graduate-school #college-admissions #veterinary #study-abroad #college-applications
