Summer Enrichment Programs
A veterinary medicine summer program is a great opportunity for young students to learn about the field of veterinary medicine and receive hands-on training with animals. 澳门六合彩开奖app CVM is proud to offer Summer Enrichment experiences that introduce students to the veterinary profession, pet nutrition and care, and immerses them in labs and other hands-on experiences.
Due to unforeseen circumstances, the 2024 Summer Enrichment camp is postponed until 2025. Thank you for your understanding– please check back later this year for updates!

Cost covers camp t-shirt, all weeklong presentations, and required materials for workshops. Applicant guardians will be notified of the payment process and deadline if their student is selected to join the camp.
Camp participants will be selected using a competitive process that includes the review of their full application, high school transcript (students should show a strong aptitude in science and STEM subjects), and a student-written essay on what that student thinks it takes to become a veterinarian.
