High school course work is not specifically evaluated, but you should ensure that you complete courses that will prepare you for university-level pre-veterinary course work.

You must complete at least 20 prerequisite university-level courses in order to be considered. You are encouraged to work toward a degree in a field of study of interest to you in the event that you are not accepted to the DVM program.
