pre veterinary science Major at Moorhead State University Minnesota
We work closely with the College of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Minnesota, St. Paul. They have advised us that students should complete an undergraduate major before starting veterinary school. Most of our pre-vet students are biology majors.
The University of Minnesota accepts only a limited number of veterinary students, with residents of Minnesota as the largest group. They also accept a few students from Wisconsin, Nebraska and North Dakota. If you are a legal resident of some other state, I suggest that you contact whatever college of veterinary medicine you plan to attend. Your pre-veterinary curriculum at MSUM can then be tailored to fit requirements of the veterinary school of your choice.
Our pre-vet curriculum (biology major) is based on a strong background in chemistry and physics and also meets certain minimum requirements in math. The first semester freshman typically takes English (Eng. 101), math (depending on previous preparation), Cell Biology (Biol. 111), and General Chemistry (Chem. 150 & 155). The pre-vet curriculum is essentially the same as that followed by other pre-professional students and would prepare one for a wide variety of alternatives.
