veterinary schools

Pet-medicine training institutions

Veterinary schools are graduate institutions that train students to become veterinarians—doctors who treat animals.

Admission is competitive, typically requiring undergraduate coursework in biology and chemistry.

Programs generally take four years and lead to a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) degree: She was accepted to three veterinary schools but chose the one closest to home.
