Step 1 – Minimum requirements
Once we receive your application, we check to make sure you meet the minimum requirements for admission, which can be found here.
Step 2 – Independent faculty review
Your application will be independently evaluated by three CVM faculty members who are looking to make sure you meet the prerequisite course requirements, have the appropriate veterinary experience and demonstrate the leadership and dedication necessary to excel in vet school.
Step 3 – Admissions committee review
Applications approved by the independent review will be forwarded to the Admissions Committee for further consideration.
Step 4 – Checking references
The Admissions Committee will call and interview one or more of your references, asking a standardized set of questions.
Step 5 – Invitation for admission
Based on your academic credentials, the faculty file evaluations, and the interviews with references, the Admissions Committee then selects who will be extended an invitation to join our incoming class, along with a small number of alternate candidates.
