Introduction
The Ontario Veterinary College (OVC) is the oldest veterinary school in Canada and the United States and is one of the most well known veterinary schools in North America. Located on the campus of the University of Guelph in Guelph, Ontario, the OVC is one of the five veterinary schools that offers the Doctor of Veterinary Medicine, DVM program in Canada.
The OVC is the only veterinary college in the province of Ontario, and one of only five current veterinary colleges across Canada. (The other four are at the Université de Montréal, University of Prince Edward Island, the University of Saskatchewan and the University of Calgary)
History
The Ontario Veterinary College is the oldest veterinary school in North America. It was established in Toronto in 1862, by the Scotsman Andrew Smith- a graduate of the Royal School of Veterinary Studies, Edinburgh. The college later moved to Guelph, Ontario in 1922 and became a founding college of the University of Guelph in 1964. Since then, the OVC has grown with the University of Guelph and remains a premier institution of Veterinary Medicine.
Education
The OVC offers a four year bachelor's degree in bio-medical science, but its primary degree offering is the DVM (Doctor of Veterinary Medicine). Students apply to the four year DVM program after a minimum of three years in a B.Sc. program. The College also offers DVSc, PhD, MSc, MPH, and Diploma programs at the graduate level and takes interns and residents from across the world. The DVM program is one of the most competitive in the world, with a total of 120 seats for each incoming batch.
