There are many employment opportunities for people with veterinary technology degrees. Besides working at a veterinary clinic, veterinary technicians can work for zoos, colleges who offer veterinary or veterinary technology degrees, drug companies, research laboratories, companies that make products for use by pet owners, government agencies such as animal health and food safety agencies, etc.
Veterinary assistants work in vet clinics, assisting the veterinary medical team (the veterinarians and veterinary technicians) with basic tasks such as moving patients between rooms, cleaning the exam rooms and filling prescriptions. A veterinary assistant can also work with animal collections such as at zoologic parks, research labs and other facilities, although they are often given a different job title.

No, unfortunately, Tarleton does not offer a vet tech program. However, starting Fall of 2011 TSU will begin a Bachelors in Technology with a major in Vet Tech. In order to do this program though, you must already have an associates Vet Tech degree from another school. MCC in Waco offers the Vet Tech Associates degree.

There are a few schools that will take a 3.0 GPA and have vet tech and bachelors. You can try going to Brown Mackie College or try getting into Vet Tech Institute.
In the United States, the courses you complete to earn a BS in veterinary technology could partially complete the pre-requisite courses needed to apply to vet school. However, the vet tech courses cannot be directly substituted for courses in vet school - the degree of difficulty and depth of information need are much greater for veterinarians than for vet techs.
I would try the NYU to find pre vet classes however you will have to leave Manhattan to finish the program.
It depends on where you live. Some states have requirements for veterinarian techs; others do not. Some veterinarians expect a certain level of training or a degree, while others will train on the job.
