Student Scholarships

Supporting veterinary student scholarships is one of our highest priorities. We are committed to providing students with an exceptional education that incorporates the latest technologies and innovations in veterinary medicine. As educational costs continue to rise alongside these advancements, scholarship support plays a vital role in helping ease students’ financial burden.

The average debt for a veterinary student at graduation is $148,000 to $151,000. Aggie veterinarians graduate with a significantly lower debt-to-income ratio than their counterparts across the country, with an average of $64,000 less educational debt than the national average. This is supported by the fact that the VMBS awarded $3.2 million in scholarships in 2024–2025, the fifth highest among colleges of veterinary medicine in the U.S.

One way former students support veterinary student scholarships at Texas A&M is to participate in the DVM Class Scholarship Initiative. This program encourages each of the Texas A&M DVM Classes to work toward creating an endowed scholarship in their class name. Many classes have already surpassed the endowment level. There is power in numbers, and if everyone gave a small amount, we could realize a scholarship named for each DVM class. Many former students use this initiative as a way to memorialize deceased classmates.

To participate in the DVM Class Scholarship Initiative, or for more information, please contact the VMBS Office of Development.
