Liberal Arts and Sciences: PREPROFESSIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR VETERINARY MEDICINE

NOTE: This document was generated from the 1995-1997 UIUC Programs of Study. Every effort has been made to ensure accuracy, but be advised that requirements may have changed since this book was published. Errors may have also been introduced in the conversion to a WWW document. Thus for items of importance, it might be wise to seek confirmation from either the paper version or a live human being.

Students wishing to complete the preprofessional requirements for veterinary medicine in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences may do so within a variety of curricula. However, courses required are equivalent to those recommended for students majoring in the life sciences. See the Life Sciences curricula.

Because of the competition for admission, students should plan to complete bachelor's degree programs. Recently there were approximately three 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, may be found under the College of Veterinary Medicine.
