Are the odds in your favor? 

If you’re a senior vet student wondering whether or not you should apply to an internship, it’s important to get the facts. Apply to internships through the VIRMP is not an easy task. The application process calls for an essay, letters of recommendation and careful selection of programs, among other requirements.

It is also not an inexpensive task, depending on the number of programs you plan to apply to. Naturally, you may want to know if the odds of matching to a program are in your favor.

Are you a 4th year vet student thinking about applying to an internship? With so many options, how do you narrow down where to apply?

Start by taking these factors into account in your decision-making process!
