What if I am having difficulty gaining externship placement in a veterinary clinic?
VTI provides veterinary clinic placement assistance. Every effort is made by the school’s placement advisor to prepare the student for entrance to a veterinary clinic, both for the externship requirement and for later employment, and to assist the student in the clinic application process. This assistance should not be considered a guarantee for wage compensation or clinic placement, as individual student conduct and effort is also relevant. Prospective students should review local career opportunities, employment statistics, and wage rates prior to registering. However, the school maintains a highly satisfactory level of student placement as a requirement for school licensure through the Commission for Independent Education, Florida Department of Education.
