community college

@breezy212: I will try to answer your question.

Carrington college is a for profit school and they offer Veterinary Technology and Veterinary Assistant programs. These programs will not have transferable classes to a Cal State or UC. This is not a community college but a vocational college. I would run far away from any for profit school especially if you want to become a Vet.

You need a Bachelor’s of Science degree in a related field: Animal Science, Animal Health Science, Animal Biology etc… Outstanding grades and plenty of hands-on experience working the animals to even apply to Vet school after you complete your Undergrad program.

You want to attend your local community college to prepare you for transfer into a 4 year university.

You will take General Education and Major Pre-req courses at your community college. You need to select a major in community college since to transfer into a 4 year, you need to take the required courses which are major specific for transfer.

Assist.org will list all the required courses you would need to take to transfer into UC Davis for example which includes the General Education and Pre-req courses. To be a successful transfer, you need to complete all these requirements. `

6 UC’s have TAG (Transfer Admission Guarantee) which means that if you complete the TAG required courses for your major along with maintaining a specific GPA, you are guaranteed admission at UC you plan to TAG.

UC Merced, Riverside, Santa Cruz, Davis, Irvine (most majors), Santa Barbara (excludes Engineering) are the campuses you can TAG.

For the Cal states, you also use assist.org for transfer classes. The Cal States offer an ADT for some majors (similar to TAG) which can guarantee admission into a Cal State.
