Best Answer

You have to attend an accredited college of veterinary medicine or school of veterinary medicine.

In the United States there are 28 accredited colleges of veterinary medicine spread throughout the country. In addition, in North America there are five colleges of veterinary medicine in Canada, at least one in Mexico and several in the Carribean. For a list of these colleges, you can check out the American Veterinary Medical Association's website at www dot avma dot org.

Around the world, most countries have at least one college of veterinary medicine, and there are regional and continental organizations of veterinary medicine that will help you find the nearest one - I'm not as familiar with these, but a quick internet search will bring up the organizations.

The only college degree required is a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine or an equivalent degree from a School of Veterinary Medicine in Another Country. However, in the United States, most applicants to vet school have already received a Bachelor's degree, and more than a few also have a Master's.

There are only 28 veternarian hospitals in the united states, making it harder to get into that a human medical school. It requires 4 years of college and an additional 4 years of veterinary medicine. Upon Graduation you have to pass a demanding national veterinary medical board exam - similiar to the bar exam in law. Then you need to pass a state board exam for the state you want to practice in.
