Practicing in the USA

Developing surgical technique in the operating theatreUniversity College Dublin is fully accredited by the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA). This means that graduates of the UCD veterinary program are not required to take any "foreign graduate" exams.

All veterinarians must have passed the North American Veterinary Licensing Examination (NAVLE) in order to be licensed. The examination is a computer-based multiple-choice test. NAVLE exams are offered yearly in December and April and are typically written by students during the final year of academic study.

In many states, veterinarians are also required to write a state exam covering the laws of veterinary medicine specific to that state, before commencing practice.
