Due to the highly competitive nature, Idaho residents who plan on veterinary medicine as a career should satisfy the entrance requirements for the WSU School of Veterinary Medicine, as well as other veterinary schools.
Students should seek regular advising from one of the pre-veterinary advisors. Students must maintain a competitive GPA. Candidates with the greater depth and breadth of the academic background are given preference by WSU. Most students accepted into the veterinary school have earned a bachelor’s degree prior to matriculation.
Students should take the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) the summer of the application year in which they apply (usually one year in advance of entering vet school).
Veterinary medicine is an animal-oriented profession; therefore, an applicant’s experience in working with animals and an understanding of the veterinary profession are viewed by professional schools’ admissions committees as important considerations in the selection process.
Boise State University is accredited by the Northwest Commission Colleges and Universities.
