To gain entry to the Bachelor of Veterinary Science/Bachelor of Veterinary Biology course, applicants are required to demonstrate:
a high level of academic ability through previous studies
an interest in, and commitment to, rural Australia, veterinary science and animal production
an understanding of the unique ethical and practical issues that confront veterinarians involved with rural practice and animal production
the capacity to communicate effectively both orally and in writing

Previous studies
Previous studies include:
the NSW Higher School Certificate or interstate/overseas equivalent
a completed or part-completed course of a university (equivalent to at least one year of full-time study)

NSW and interstate school leavers are normally selected on the basis of their Universities Admissions Index (UAI) or interstate equivalent. Currently no secondary school subjects are prerequisites for admission to the Bachelor of Veterinary Science/Bachelor of Veterinary Biology course however students with a strong interest in science would be expected to do chemistry if attending a school where it is offered.
