- Description
- One path to a career in veterinary medicine is through the DVM (Doctor of Veterinary Medicine). Application for admission to a veterinary school is normally made during the senior year of college. To be eligible for admission, students must complete a series of specific prerequisite courses as part of their undergraduate program at St. Catherine's. While prerequisite requirements vary in detail, all emphasize coursework in the natural sciences. However, because veterinary schools do not require a specific academic major for admission, students may complete these prerequisite courses as part of an undergraduate program that includes any major of their choosing. For admittance into the professional program, students must also complete the GRE (Graduate Record Exam) General test.
