  1. michigan state has the best vet program or purdue.  know some people in them and use vets from there and they are well educated and rounded with the animals also vets from there tend to be comfedent around all animals.

    have you jobshadowed any vets yet??  most colleges can require that so you might want to


  2. MS state has a early entry program vet for aspiring vets. You apply in high school and get excepted to MS state and their vet school. Shadow vets, participate in the USPC, and make good grades so that you'll have something to offer the board. They only except a elite few. **** luck!

  3. I wanna do the same!! OSU or CSU are very good!

  4. Start with a good science-based undergraduate education, in the best university you can get into.  Vet schools are pretty competitive, and getting in a good program will require an excellent GPA and good recommendations from your professors.

  5. University of Findlay.  They have a huge equestrian program and pre vet courses.  You would have to switch to another college to start full veterinary classes though since they only offer pre vet.

    UC Davis.  They aren't specific on horses but they have an amazing vet program

    Have you tried collegeboard.com?  They have a tool to help you find a college that meets your specifications

    Good luck

  6. You should find a program that provides a good foundation in biology and/or animal sciences.  I suggest you look at Cornell University and Colorado State University.  However, vet schools will accept students from any undergraduate college or university.

  7. Texas A&M is a highly reputable school, nationally recognized, and has an outstanding veterinary program.  They offer your basic degrees in veterinary medicine, and also contain an animal hospital on campus.

  8. I would look in Texas or OSU in ohio.

  9. findlay in ohio

    osu oklahoma

    findlay is very very expensive and only pre vet

  10. I looked up colleges and Cornell is one of the best but is hard to get into. Their vet program is very competitive, another option is to apply to another ag program there and then transfer to the vet one you are in!

  11. The University of MN has a great program, great campus and awesome teaching hospital.

  12. There are many great veterinary schools in the United States. The best place to get information on a great equine veterinary program is to go to the Association of American Veterinary Medical Colleges (AAVMC) website and look at schools on the website. Once you look at all the choices you can go the actual school website and find out more information and can call the school for a tour and meet with an admission counselor.  The website is http://www.aavmc.org

  13. if your in canada gueplh university has a great program

  14. If you are looking for a college, then it doesn't matter that much as long as you do well and get a degree in science or agriculture(B.S./ 4 year degree).  If you are looking for a veterinary school, then I would advise you to look around your region(within your state or if your state does not have a vet school check adjoining states that may offer in state admission to residents of your state.)  I think what you will find is that if you want to be a board certified equine surgeon or board certified equine internal medicine specialist you will have 3-5 more years after veterinary school and once you get to that point you will want to find a specialty within those fields that interest you and what school has the program that best fit's your interest.  If you are serious about this contact me as I am a mixed animal veterinarian and see about 35% equine cases and wouldn't mind talking about this with you.
