Note:

After completion of the Associate of Science Degree with an option in pre-veterinary medicine, the student will transfer to a four-year institution to complete other requirements. Competition for admission to veterinary school is intense because more students generally apply than can be accepted. Students are advised to consider possible career alternatives in selection of their program after completion of the Associate of Science Degree. The Associate of Science Degree is designed to permit students to work toward the normal entry requirements for veterinary school yet maintain the recommended career flexibility in a variety of agriculture and other baccalaureate degree programs.
