Becker College

The pre-veterinary program at Becker College has an academically rigorous science-based curriculum designed to meet the requirements for admission to most veterinary schools. The Becker Veterinary Clinic at the Lenfest Animal Health Center provides opportunities for gaining veterinary experience from the first day you set foot on campus. Our advising team and seven full time veterinarians are here to guide you as you prepare your portfolio of experiences and coursework that will help you explore the veterinary profession, prepare a competitive application, and to succeed at veterinary school.

In addition to veterinary school, pre-veterinary students may consider an array of graduate studies in the health and life science professions or may pursue employment in a biomedical research entry-level position directly after graduation. For students who wish to pursue both certification as a veterinary technician and complete the minimum prerequisite coursework to apply to most veterinary schools, please speak with the Chair of the Pre-veterinary Program about the options available.
