Book Description
The opportunities and options for veterinarians are more varied than ever. Today's veterinary student can choose to train for a career in environmental problem-solving, local community health, food resource management, zoo animal care, space and marine biology, and wildlife preservation, in addition to the more traditional small, or large-animal practices. Last year, only 35 percent of all applications to vet schools resulted in an acceptance, so the choices begin with early preparation for these highly selective admissions standards. Students, parents, mentors, and counselors need to help make sure that such important decisions are based on sound knowledge, and Veterinary Medical School Admission Requirements is an invaluable source for essential information. This compact volume, which is updated annually, gives a general overview of the application process, including detailed information on the Veterinary Medical Colleges Application Service and residency requirements. Each of the thirty-one veterinary medical schools in the United States and Canada provides information about campuses, deadlines, specific prerequisites, expenses, and special programs. Extensive tables provide data on veterinary medical applications and acceptances over the last nineteen years. Tuition for one of the top veterinary medical schools can cost as much as $20,000 a year-make sure it's money well spent. The Association of American Veterinary Medical Colleges coordinates the affairs of the twenty-seven U.S. Veterinary Medical Colleges, four Canadian Colleges of Veterinary Medicine, Departments of Veterinary Science and Comparative Medicine, and the animal medical centers. In addition the association fosters the membership's teaching, research, and service missions both nationally and internationally.
