Candidate
My veterinary school isn't a U.S. or Canadian program — can I still qualify through my degree alone?
Category: NAVLE - Eligibility & Applying / EligibilityOnly if your program carries current AVMA COE accreditation. For example, UNAM (Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México) was AVMA COE-accredited from March 2011 through December 31, 2025, only — graduates outside that accreditation window need to qualify through the BCSE/QSE certification route instead. Always confirm your program's current accreditation status directly with ICVA or AVMA before assuming eligibility.
