The DVMC is excited to expand access to veterinary medicine education to traditionally underserved and underrepresented groups by offering education grants.
Recipients will be chosen and will receive an education grant in the form of free registration and paid travel expenses (hotel and airfare).*
With hundreds of CE credit hours to choose from, recipients will find relevant learning in a variety of formats as well as have the opportunity to network with industry professionals and peers.
Learn More about the conference at VMX.
*This grant does not include meals or transportation to/from the airport.
Who should apply?
Licensed DVMs, veterinary technicians and veterinary students.
Candidates from underrepresented groups are strongly encouraged to apply.
All applicants must be US citizens or legal permanent residents with a valid permanent resident card or passport stamped (I-551).

“I am the first one in my family to get into veterinary medicine. Having guidance in this field was really hard for me and having this opportunity to interact and network with people has opened so many doors.”

"During undergrad, I would go into my science classes and I wouldn't see anybody that would like me. It didn't motivate me. Now I am surrounded by people who look like me and share the same interests as me at the conference!"

Applications for the 2026 Education Grant will open at a later date.
Stay tuned for updates!
