Pre-Vet / D.V.M.
The program of study leading to the Bachelor of Science degree in Biological Sciences with a Pre-Veterinary Sciences Track from Maryville College and to the Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree from the University of Tennessee College of Veterinary Medicine consists of three academic years at Maryville followed by four academic years at UTCVM. This program offers an alternate track for earning a B.S. from Maryville College in which requirements for the senior year of study are completed at UTCVM as part of the first year of veterinary school. All general education, major, and major-related courses specified to be taken at Maryville College must be completed by the end of the junior year at Maryville College. During the junior year, the student makes application to the UTCVM; admission is determined by the UTCVM. Students admitted to the UTCVM Doctor of Veterinary Medicine program can be awarded the B.S. in Biological Sciences with a Pre-Veterinary Sciences Track upon completing enough hours at UTCVM to bring the total in the program to 128, including Clinical Correlations & Ethics I & II, Application Based Learning Exercise I & II, and at least 17 hours in Anatomy, Physiology, Infection & Immunity, and/or epidemiology.
