Cost of Attendance
In addition to a robust scholarship and grant program, the School of Veterinary Medicine provides a financial literacy program and support services to help students finance their education. As a result of these efforts, UC Davis veterinary students consistently graduate with a lower debt burden and higher starting salary compared to national averages.
