The Atlantic Veterinary College (AVC) is pleased to announce that they will be hosting the AVC Summer Academy from July 4 to 7, 2023. This marks the first year that the Academy will be offered since the COVID-19 pandemic.

The AVC Summer Academy is for high school graduates, undergraduates, and university graduates who are interested in pursuing a degree in veterinary medicine. Participants have the opportunity to work alongside faculty, staff, and students of AVC and explore the profession in an immersive, hands-on way through lectures, labs, activities, discussions, and a field trip.

In addition, participants will have the opportunity to learn and ask questions about AVC’s admission process, financial aid, and admissions interviews.

AVC Summer Academy is a day program only. Participants are responsible for arranging their own accommodation, travel, and meals. A minimum of 20 registrants is required to run the program, and if there are more applicants than spaces available, a lottery draw will determine attendees.
