For students who are trying to determine whether veterinary medicine is the right career path, AVM is a great way to gain a deeper understanding of the profession. The program is also helpful for students who have already decided on a future in veterinary medicine, as it allows them to experience life as a veterinary student and explore opportunities within the field. Many of our past AVM participants have successfully gained admission to veterinary school both here at Tufts and at other schools.

We offer two sessions for college students as well as a session for adult, non-traditional students.

            Adult Session 2:          April 29–May 3

            College Session 4:       June 10–14

 

Full details, including eligibility, tuition, and the online application, can be found on our website.

 

We hope that you will share this information with your students and with any other appropriate departments at your institution. If you or your students have any questions, please feel free to contact us at AVM@tufts.edu or 508-839-7962.
