B Vet Biol / DVM Transfer (1 Viewer)

[chidzz]

Is there a possibility of transferring to the combined B VetBiol/DVM degree at USYD from the BSci/BAdvStu(AVBS)?? I really want to get into the DVM course instead of doing it post-grad otherwise I'll have to study for 8 years rather than 6-7. I've also heard it is possible to do vet nursing at tafe then complete the DVM course which would also take less time.

Has anyone else done this or now anything about getting into the combined DVM degree?

Yes it's possible if you satisfy the requirements

Entry to the BVetBiol/DVM is assessed on the basis of academic results. For Year 12 students this will be the Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR) or equivalent. For non-year 12 students, this might be an ATAR or equivalent or Grade Point average (GPA) from tertiary study at bachelor level.
