I have a friend at Royal Vet College in London - AVMA COE accredited - and he is looking to enter the match this coming Fall.

What internships accept foreign graduates? He is running in to issues of internships not sponsoring visas for foreign graduates. Does anyone have experience with this?

I do not have experience with this.

My answer would depend on what type of internship he's looking for. SA rotating?

I believe VCA internships accept non-U.S. interns. The VIRMP descriptions usually say if they accept U.S. applicants only.

There are two separate issues. One is where he got his degree. Being an AVMA accredited school this will not be a problem at most programs.

The other issue regards Visas. Many programs do not accept applicants that require a Visa to work because of financial and timing limitations. This information will be in the program description published on the VIRMP site. So he just needs to check the descriptions of any programs he is interested in.

Private internships will sponsor a visa.

Oregon State historically will.
