First, there is no such thing as a pre-veterinary degree. Individuals who wish to become veterinarians come from a variety of educational backgrounds. The pre-veterinary program, is a curriculum layout, more commonly referred to as a track that ensures students who intend to apply to veterinarian schools complete the appropriate prerequisite coursework. These courses typically include the following.
- organic and inorganic chemistry
- physics
- biochemistry
- general Biology
- animal biology
- animal nutrition
- genetics

Some programs require calculus; some require only statistics, college algebra and trigonometry, or pre-calculus. Most veterinary medical colleges also require some courses in English or literature, other humanities, and the Social Sciences. Increasingly, courses in general business management and career development have become a standard part of the curriculum to teach new graduates how to effectively run a practice.
