At Penn Vet, we celebrate diversity in many respects, including the educational background of our students. As undergraduates our students have majored in a wide range of academic areas. Diversity of background enriches our student body and brings unique perspectives to our community. Our Matriculation Requirements insure that our incoming students have completed a broad spectrum of coursework before starting the VMD.
Our Matriculation Requirements are not required to be complete in order to apply or be considered/accepted. Once you've been accepted and confirmed your place in the VMD program, we will conduct an audit of your coursework to verify completion of these requirements. Incoming students with requirements that are outstanding will have until late July (prior to matriculation in late August) to complete the coursework. Our requirements are in the table below, which you can also download.
Please note: Courses must be C or above to meet a matriculation requirement.
