VET PREP PROGRAM
Graduate Programs
Ross Vet’s preclinical DVM curriculum consists of seven semesters of specifically prescribed coursework. The clinical curriculum consists of three semesters of clinical training at an AVMA-accredited* school of veterinary medicine in the US, Canada, UK, Ireland, or New Zealand.
The accelerated DVM program is designed to be completed in 10 semesters, or 3.25 years. The first 2.25 years are spent completing preclinical curriculum on our campus in St. Kitts. After that, students undergo one year of clinical application at one of our AVMA-accredited affiliate schools.
Ross Vet offers a one-semester Veterinary Preparatory (Vet Prep) program for students who may benefit from specific courses that will enhance the likelihood of their success in veterinary school. If you are offered Vet Prep and pass, you will be guaranteed a spot in the next first-semester class of the DVM program.
"I’ll be honest, the first year was the hardest for me. You have to adjust to living in a different place. You can get homesick. But then people who started as strangers become your new family, and they understand what you're going through like no one at home. Now that I look back, I wouldn't have traded those 2 1/2 years for the world. I've grown so much as a person and have a unique skillset I feel will only help me become a better veterinarian."
