For my open blog post this week I'd like to talk about the veterinary schools in the United States. There are only 28 AVMA accredited veterinarian schools in the US. Alabama and California are the only two states that have two schools. Every other school has it's "own state." My hometown vet attended Auburn.
Michigan State University is ranked #9 in the lists for best veterinary program, whereas Knoxville University in Tennessee is ranked somewhere around #14 or #15. Cornell University was ranked #1. Also, the competition to get into the programs is just as hard, if not harder than getting into medical school. All programs are four years long with the first two years consisting of book work, classes, and studying. The next two years are clinicals and internships.
