Note:
Veterinary-related experience is extremely important. This can be gained through paid employment, volunteer work, or internships and may be done in veterinary clinics, farms, zoos, wildlife parks, or ranches. Students should keep a daily time and activity log of their veterinary-related experiences.
Please be advised
Please be advised that some programs or courses of study require that students complete rotations, fieldwork, internships/externships, and/or teaching assignments at facilities external to the university, while other programs or courses of study may offer voluntary internships or externships at facilities external to the university. Depending on the program or course, such facilities will or may require a criminal background check, an Act 33/34 clearance (if applicable), and perhaps a drug screen to determine participant qualification or eligibility. Additionally, in order to become licensed, many states will inquire as to whether the applicant has been convicted of a misdemeanor, a felony, or a felonious or illegal act associated with alcohol and/or substance abuse.
