Hands-on experience required – and provided.
Most veterinary schools want applicants to have some previous experience working with large and small animals, along with at least 54 semester hours of college credit in specific fields. To help you meet both of those prerequisites, we’ll work with you freshman year to create a plan for winning admission to the vet school of your choice. If you’re planning to go the pre-veterinary route, you should choose a major and meet with Dr. John Hurd as early as possible.

Franklin College has a pre-professional program for veterinary medicine at Purdue University. To be considered for admission to the School of Veterinary Medicine at Purdue, the student must have completed a minimum of 72 semester hours of pre-veterinary medicine studies. Most students admitted to the veterinary program at Purdue have many more than the 72 hours. A large percentage now complete the B.A. degree prior to entering the pre-professional program.

Students applying to Purdue must submit an application to VMCAS (Veterinary Medical College Application Service). This organization serves as a clearing house sending your application materials to all of the vet schools that you apply to. Students applying to Purdue also must take the GRE (Graduate Record Exam). This exam must be taken in time to have your completed application postmarked to Purdue no later than October 1 of the year preceding your admission to vet school. The preprofessional requirements for admission to the Purdue program and the Franklin College course that Purdue has designated as a satisfactory equivalent for each required course are listed below.

The University of St. Francis offers excellent undergraduate preparation for veterinary school. USF does not offer a specific “pre-vet” major. Few colleges in the United States do because there is not a specific major required for admission to colleges of veterinary medicine. USF does offer a biology degree with a pre-veterinary track for students interested in pursuing careers in veterinary medicine. Therefore, USF students complete a core of courses which prepare them for entrance into veterinary college and still enjoy the freedom and flexibility to design a curriculum in advanced science course which are appropriate to their interests.

Colleges of veterinary medicine are looking for students who have completed a core of specific course work in biology, chemistry, math and physics and who have performed at a high academic level. Veterinary colleges may also require volunteer work or other specific types of clinical experience outside the classroom. In addition, coursework required in the humanities and social sciences may vary by school.

The professional DVM curriculum of the College of Veterinary Medicine provides its students the most modern and advanced educational opportunity available in veterinary medical education today. The faculties of the College have established a tradition of incorporating innovative instructional programs and methods for the advancement of veterinary medicine in its service to animals and society.
