Basic information about the UAF Pre-Veterinary Medicine program. Includes UAF course equivalents for Washington State University, Oregon State University, Colorado State University, University of California Davis, and Kansas State University.
This is a current program based on the 2002/2003 UAF Catalog! It also contains links to UAF course descriptions and information on Washington State University General Education Requirements.
Here is a sample 4-year program for study at the University of Alaska Fairbanks. It is designed for the student seeking a B.S. in Biology and caters to students entering their freshman year with a strong educational background. Students interested in our Wildlife Biology program will require some extra planning to meet both the pre-veterinary requirements and the course requirements set forth by the Wildlife Society. Remember that you do not need a baccalaureate degree to apply to a veterinary school! I generally recommend applying to a veterinary school in the fall of your junior year. If you get accepted you can reduce your term at UAF by 1 year. If you do not get into veterinary school -- keep on applying! Being turned down does not affect subsequent applications.
Here is some basic information to help plan high school courses that will prepare you for the University's Pre-Veterinary Medicine Program.
