On average it takes 8 years. It all really depends on how dedicated you are. The actual Veterinary Medicine program is a 4 year program, but you have to have your Bachelor degree in either Biology or Chemistry before you can be accepted to the vet med program. The Bachelor's degree is where it all depends. It depends on how many classes you take each semester, whether you take summer classes, whether you have to retake classes, whether you have to take zero level classes, etc. Some people get their Bachelor's degree in 3 years and some in 5-6 years.
Good luck to you and I know you will enjoy it!!

It depends. It normally takes about 7-8 years, four in regular college and four in a graduate vet school. Good luck in becoming one!

Veterinarian How Many Years

Veterinary college is 4 years. It will take you 6-8 depending on your undergraduate studies. It will be taking me 7 total.
ETA: You may not have to have a bachelor's degree to get into veterinary college. I didn't. Perhaps it depends on where you will be attending. I obtained my bachelor's degree after I had completed my first year of veterinary college with satisfactory grades.
You should contact the veterinary college(s) you wish to apply to and get the exact prerequisites from them so you'll be able to plan your undergraduate studies accordingly.
Edited again: I tried to reply to your e-mail but got a message saying your e-mail address hasn't been confirmed. If you get that fixed, e-mail me again & I'll try again to reply. :-)
