Vet entry requirements have dropped massively over the last few years because of the poor employment outcomes. One in five vet graduates are unemployed after their five to six year university degree.
So you could either wait for the decreasing STAT requirement or start another degree and transfer into vet. But make sure you have someone else to provide finances for your vet career as there is a good chance of unemployment and low wages for those that do find employment. That someone who is providing the finances also better be super supportive because you will likely work weekends and evenings with little time to see your family or friends. Don't expect much sympathy from the public either as they routinely whinge about the cost of veterinary care. But that is what your boss will dictate must be charged for the clinic to survive.
