The Committee on Admission takes seriously its charge of choosing future veterinarians who will contribute positively to the world’s community of veterinary medicine. The selection of students is made after careful consideration of many aspects: academic ability; emotional and professional maturity; academic achievement; community service; indicators of responsibility and motivation; time in a veterinary medical practice or farm experience; and letters of recommendation regarding the applicant’s personal qualities, character, motivation, and academic abilities. Candidates for admission will be invited for an interview.
