Cornell University, in Ithaca, New York USA.\n\nIf I am not mistaken, it has the reputation of being the finest in the world.

There's  no such  thing as a generic "best college."    You need to find a college that is (1) accredited,  (2) has  the degree/major you are looking for, (3) is in  a  location you're interested  in, (4) provides the learning  environment and class-size you prefer, (5) has a solid reputation for producing  quality, degreed students, (6) has good connections and visibility in the field in which you wish to study and work, and (7) offers the services  (housing, medical, other) that you will need to enter and remain in school to earn your degree.\n\nIf college selection is an issue for you, visit with your high school counselor, a college admissions counselor, or an independent education consultant near you.

see what it takes for Veterinary Science, you know the beginning stuff like pre-med.  Maybe that'd help.  Or contact your local County Extension  Agent and he can pull out all kinds of brochures on subjects related to the one your looking for.  Good Luck Animal Lover

Wow!  What a great career goal, good luck to you!\n\nA quick search of a few vet schools revealed some interesting information.  Some of them require a certain number of pre-vet hours and some of them require a degree for admission.\n\nCheck the admission requirements for the schools you wish to apply to.  If they only require hours, ultimately the vet school will confer your degree.  If they require a degree, then your current program may not be adequate for admission.\n\nUnderstanding the requirements of the school you wish to attend will ensure that you are properly prepared when application time rolls around.\n\nBest Wishes!

Vet school or a local animal shelter that euthanizes animals. Maybe an internship with a vet would be sufficent, check with your school.

It is very competitive. Every veterinary college has course curriculum and try to get information from them. Put college of veterinary medicine in your search engine,  and you should be able to contact them.For now since you are in high school keep your grades up and get a study guide for the SAT.Good luck.

To become a veterinarian you will need to have an undergraduate major in a biology-related field.  These majors often require calculus I and II.  Some veterinary schools require statistics for admission but not all.  There are currently 28 accredited veterinary schools in the country and each one has slightly different admissions course requirements.  Admission into veterinary school is highly residency based, so identify your "state school" and find their particular requirements.  Its not impossible to get in, particularly into your state school.  Study hard, keep up with the Math and get as much experience working with animals and veterinarians as possible!  Best of luck.

Most colleges do not have "pre-vet" as a major, and those few that do are the exception rather than the rule.  Students should not be deceived into thinking that a college with a "pre-vet" major is a better choice than a college that does not.  \n\nLike "pre-med," "pre-vet" is a constellation of courses that students hoping to be admitted to veterinary school must take in order to be qualified as vet school candidates.   These courses usually include biology or zoology, chemistry, calculus, physics, psychology, and English.\n\nIf you hope to be admitted to veterinary school, my best advice is this:\n1) Attend the best (most highly ranked) college you can get into, and earn the best grades you can manage. \n\n2) Speak regularly with a "pre-vet" advisor to make sure you are fulfilling all the requirements for veterinary school admissions, but major in anything you really love.   ("Pre-vet" advisors are sometimes the same as "pre-med" advisors, depending on the university.)\n\n3) Volunteer many hours with a vet or at an animal shelter while you are in college.  A paid part-time job with a vet, or an animal hospital, would be an acceptable alternative to volunteering.  \n\nIf you do these things regularly and well, you will enhance your candidacy when it comes time to apply to veterinary school.\n\nBest wishes to you!
