St. George’s University School of Veterinary Medicine prepares students for the world of animal health care and its effect on global health. The School of Veterinary Medicine is now one of the few schools in the world accredited by both the American Veterinary Medical Association Council on Education (AVMA COE) in the United States and Canada, as well as the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) in the United Kingdom.

SGU’s DVM graduates are fully eligible to seek licensure in the USA and Canada without further steps other than successfully passing the NAVLE. DVM graduates who have also completed the Global Veterinary Health Track will be eligible to register as members of the RCVS and practice in the UK without further examination.

Students gain valuable hands-on experience in veterinary surgery and other skills prior to their final-year clinical training at one of SGUSVM’s affiliated schools of veterinary medicine in the US, UK, Ireland, Canada, Australia, and Grenada. In addition to a state-of-the-art large-animal facility and marine station, the SGU Small Animal Clinic helps local pets live longer through vaccination services, deworming, and parasite management. The clinic serves more than 1,200 residents and handles close to 200 patients each week.
