Non-trad student here,
I’m 34 and I’ve been heavily considering attempting to apply to go to Vet school. I have a BA in biology, classes are 10+ years old and grades honestly were not that great, especially my o chem courses. My biology courses were just ok (some a’s, some b’s) That being said, who here was a non trad student and retaken all pre-req courses and then applied and accepted successfully at any school?
My in state is IL and I would love to go there because I could easily commute but I’m realistic and know that I may have to potentially relocate to another state. Also to be more specific has anyone done the petition to ignore academic record completed over 6 years ago at IL?
What schools would be the most realistic for me to set sights on. I have TONS of vet experience as I’ve been a full time vet assistant in small animal/exotic practices for 10+ years and too many hours to count of equine animal experience as I’ve ridden and competed horses my whole life.
I feel like this is all such a long shot but I figure I’ll never know unless I try.
Literally any input would be appreciated!!!!
