What are good vet schools to go to to be a vet?

Answer 1

No state in the US requires any formal education or training to work as a veterinary assistant. This is an entry level position in the veterinary medical field and veterinary assistants are generally trained on the job. There are some schools that offer veterinary assisting programs and "certify" their students however many of these are not overseen by an veterinary professionals or professional organizations and are often taught by people with no education or experience in the veterinary field. For people interested in enrolling in a veterinary assisting program, a wise choice would be to select programs offered by colleges that also offer an American Veterinary Medical Association accredited veterinary technology program or a veterinary assisting program that has been designed or approved by a veterinary professional association.

Answer 2

There are 28 colleges of veterinary medicine in the United States and another 5 in Canada; all will give you a solid education and allow you to become a veterinarian. However, certain schools do have a reputation for focusing on certain areas of veterinary medicine - The University of Florida is known for marine animal medicine and The University of Tennessee is known for wildlife medicine.

Answer 5

In general, if a university has a veterinary medicine program, it is a good program. Veterinary medicine is a tightly accredited program and the educational standards are closely monitored by professional veterinary organizations. Also, there are relatively few universities that offer veterinary medicine training, particularly when compared to other sciences such as physics or psychology.

Answer 6

Veterinary assisting courses are offered through a number of different types of educational facilities. High schools, colleges, veterinary medical associations and private companies are some of the institutions that offer veterinary assisting courses. The value of the courses is dependent on the knowledge and experience of those who wrote the course materials and teach the courses. Courses offered through colleges that also offer a veterinary technology degree or that are offered or approved by a veterinary medical or veterinary technician association are the best courses, in general. These situations guarantee that veterinarians and veterinary technicians are involved in building and teaching the courses, which means that the materials are approved by people with advanced knowledge and experience in the veterinary medical field.
