Hi,
I have been trying to get in for years. BSc Animal Science, MSc Livestock Health and I'm a lecturer in Animal Science with over 20yrs experience with animals from bugs to bison. I'm just not rich enough. I am thinking of starting a petition to reduce fees for people like us. What are people thoughts on that?

Hi,

The veterinary graduate costs more to produce than any other. Medical students get their patients to work on for free - veterinary students have to have theirs - horses, cattle, sheep, pigs, etc - bought for them by their veterinary school.
Even at the tuition fees charged today by university veterinary schools the state provides a lot of financial help.
Sadly, the days of free tertiary education are past now that so many perople go to college after leaving school.
