Depending on how old you are, there are many pre-vet clubs in colleges.  You could also check out your states department of agriculture website.  I joined a veterinary emergency responders organization so if there is an outbreak of some sort of animal disease, I may be called to help out.  There is also the american veterinary medical association (AVMA) which may have meetings.

Try Goshen College, Ohlone College, or San Antonio College for starters. They all have really good programs, its just a matter of what exactly you want.

I would say the best thing to do is talk to people who have gone to the schools. Is you are still in school for your bacholor's degree talk to your professors. One school may be better than the other as far as academics depending on the area of study you are in. I know that Penn State has an good Animal Sciences program.

There are many great schools to go to in order to advance a veterinary career.  I would check out colleges or universities with strong science departments.  You can really major in anything you want and still get into vet schools but I would recommend that you major in a science, that way you can come to vet school with a strong science background.  Be prepared to work hard and study harder in college.  I didn't major in a natural science and I still got into vet school, so you should really major in something you enjoy.  By attending an undergrad university that has a vet school (ie Cornell, Tufts, Upenn, UC Davis) you are better ensured to recieve good preparation for the vet classes from your undergrad courses but it doesn't really give you an advantage to getting into that vet school in particular. \nMy advice for you is this, do well in school, work hard and play hard.  Have fun, take a variety of classes (not just sciences).  Take advantage of study abroad programs and extracurricular activites.\nAs far as volunteering goes, start now.  It is really good to have an interesting and broad resume when applying to vet schools.  I volunteered in shelters, zoos and vet clinics.  A lot of schools like to know that students have had some exposure to research as well but this may not be practical until you are a bit older.\nJust try your best in school, pursue a variety of different experiences and participate in things that you love.  This will eventually lead you to the right path for you.

I would suggest visiting www.usnews.com.\nThey have a section where you can view the best colleges in the nation based on their location, rank, academics, major and more. It's a really good place to look for colleges.

The University of Texas at Arlington. It's amazing and inexpensive. You can choose concentrations in Direct Practice, Children, Families, Administration, Community or Community and Administration together. \n\nI highly recommend you think about UTA.

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.

It depends on your goals. \n\nFor example, UMass Amherst, through their Stockbridge School, offers several associates degrees related to farming. Santafee Community College in Florida offers an associates degree in a program that trains you to work in a zoo. \n\nHowever, if you want to be a vet, you'll need a four year degree in a biologicial science, then you'll need to go to veterinary school.

Harvard College of Medicine, Mass., is ranked #1 by most credible polls.  It is also the school with the highest ratio of "accepted students who enroll" and one of the "toughest ratios" of applicants to admitted students.\n\nI am an MD and PHD, Yale alum, and my advice: ignore the rude comments by other person who has answered; study hard; learn all you can, and good luck!! \n\necl, md, phd

UMASS has a great agricultural program.\n\nIf you are willing to go a little out of the area, Cornell is an absolutely great program, top 5 in the country.\n\nOther good options would be URI and UCONN.
