Accreditation

The School is seeking accreditation by the American Veterinary Medical Association Council on Education (COE). The COE is the U.S. Department of Education-approved accrediting agency for colleges and schools of veterinary medicine in the U.S., Canada and international institutions.

There are a series of steps each new school must follow before receiving full accreditation. Schools must adhere to 11 accreditation standards demonstrating that they offer high-quality educational experiences as outlined by the AVMA.

A Consultative Site Visit was completed in May 2023. A Comprehensive Site Visit is scheduled for April 2024. Successful completion of the Comprehensive Site Visit would make the program eligible for a Letter of Reasonable Assurance, which would allow for matriculation of our inaugural class.
