How much is veterinary school?

• State residency

In general, you are likely to pay a lot less in tuition and fees if you attend a veterinary school in your state, while out-of-state vet schools are likely to cost considerably more.

• Type of school

Public institutions normally cost much less than private colleges or universities. This comes down to the fact that public schools are funded by federal, state, and local governments, while private colleges are privately funded.

• Living expenses

The cost of living in the area in which you attend school can have a significant impact on how much you pay for your vet school experience. Expenses like housing, meal plans, and transportation can vary depending on your specific vet school.

• Student loans

You should keep in mind that if you take out student loans to cover your veterinary school costs, you are going to be repaying the loans and any interest accrued as well.
