The Pre-Veterinary Society is a student-run organization dedicated to offering its members new perspectives on the veterinary profession and advice to optimize chances of gaining admission to veterinary school. The society is an excellent resource for freshmen and sophomores who may need more information on vet school requirements and for upperclassmen contemplating specializations they may wish to pursue.
