As far as I know ,nope (at least in regards to the UK schools...never considered any schools in Australia). Like the US schools, you just need to make sure you meet the prerequisite course requirements.

okay thanks! Do you know if the prereqs for UK vet schools are the same as the ones for US vet schools?

For the most part, yes but if you want specifics you can look it up here:

Generally, the UK schools have fewer prereqs. I was a music major, so would have needed to take more science classes before applying to US schools. I decided to apply only to UK schools, thinking that, if I didn't get in, I would take the US prereqs and apply to US schools the following year. But I was accepted, and am doing fine so far in my first year at Glasgow!

Check the uni websites as well, they're really informative and at least for Aussie schools, they basically tell you straight up what you need. The pre recs are generally quite similar. If you're unsure about something, try contacting/calling the schools. In my experience they're really helpful and informative.
