Students who wish to pursue an education in the area of veterinary science have two options from which to choose: a Career Studies Certificate in Veterinary Assisting and an Associate in Applied Science in Veterinary Technology. After completion of the certificate, a student may choose to apply for admission into the Veterinary Technology Associate Degree program. If accepted into the program, one of the courses in the certificate, AGR 235, will count towards the Associate in Applied Science Degree. Two programs of instruction are available for the As ate Degree program: the full-time day program at the Weyers Cave campus and, for students in the Tidewater region of Virginia, a part-time program through the Compressed Video Network transmitted to the Virginia Beach campus of Tidewater Community College.
