& Mentorship
Building Bridges Between Students and Veterinary Medicine

The decision to study veterinary medicine starts with a passion for helping animals. But we know that life can often get in the way of doing what we love. Maybe you don’t see anyone in the profession that looks like you. Or maybe you start to second-guess whether you have what it takes to work in animal health. Perhaps the financial obligation is preventing you from taking the next step.
We’re here to help mitigate those obstacles – and more. Our veterinary scholarship program is more than just financial aid for BIPOC students. It’s designed to create accessible pathways for more underrepresented students to obtain veterinary degrees through preparation, mentorship, internships – and of course, financial assistance.
