Most students wishing to complete the preprofessional requirements for veterinary medicine in the College of Agriculture follow Option 1 of the agricultural science major, or the animal sciences major-science option.

Because of the competition for admission, the student should plan a bachelor's degree program that will prepare him or her for a career alternative should admission to the professional program not be obtained. Recently there have been approximately two qualified applicants for each space available in the entering class in veterinary medicine. The mean grade-point average of admitted students was slightly above 4.5 (A = 5.0). Specific information about veterinary medicine, including admission requirements, can be found in the College of Veterinary Medicine section.
