Our Admission Philosophy

The College of Veterinary Medicine uses selective admission procedures. Criteria for admission are determined by an Admission Committee. Applicants are evaluated on academic profiles and certain other non-cognitive factors, including motivation, character, communication and interpersonal skills, personality, leadership ability, animal exposure, and knowledge of the profession.  Specific requirements may change annually. It is the candidate’s responsibility to know and comply with the correct procedures and guidelines for admission.

If you have any questions, please call (614) 292-8831 to speak to an admissions counselor.
