 Veterinary Licensure/Testing Information:
Each veterinary medical school has a different test requirement. For example, some colleges requires the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) General Test. You want to sign up early to ensure that you can take the test on your desired date. There are no registration deadlines for the GRE General test, but registration is first come, first served.
    -A few DVM schools require the GRE general test and the Biology Subject test, which is only given three times each year using paper and pencil. Some veterinary schools will accept the Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT) or the GRE. As of April 2003, the VCAT test has been discontinued and therefore is not required by any veterinary medical schools.
    -For school specific information on testing, visit the Association of American Veterinary Medical Colleges list of Veterinary Medical Schools and Colleges.
    -Some Veterinary college will continue to accept VCAT scores from the past four years. These details can be found at the AAVMC (Association of American Veterinary Medical Colleges) website.
