Pre-Veterinary Medicine

There is only one veterinary school in Texas. It does not require a bachelor’s degree for admission, but because of the competition, a bachelor’s degree is highly recommended. Prerequisites include 12 semester hours of biology, 19 hours of chemistry (inorganic, organic and biochemistry), three hours of mathematics, eight hours of physics, 12 hours of English and speech, and four hours of animal nutrition. Experience in working with large animals is recommended.
