Oh that's great that the school is close to you! Let us know when you decide to go!

As for your question, I'm not actually sure. I'm sure that having an associates degree/veterinary technician license will help you to some degree if you want to pursue the DVM license.
LOL don't worry about asking questions- I'm the same way! And I'm more than happy to asnswer them!

You've been very helpful

I contacted the Utah Career College and they called back today. They're offering scholarships and I'm going on September 2 to look around their new veterinary clinic and they'll answer any questions I have. I'm excited

So...

I have checked out the Utah Career College and have signed up! The program is very expensive... 40,000 dollars. I'm going to keep applying for scholarships and financial aid. I have already gotten 4,000 worth of scholarships through the college itself. I've ultimately decided that I would like to stay working as a Veterinary Technician. The job is just so more appealing to me than being a Veterinarian.

I also started my internship at an animal hospital nearby and I love it! It's so much fun working with the different animals. Yesterday was my first day and I got to work with a Miniature Australian Shepherd (, absolutely adorable, however!) pup who got spayed and a huge Great Dane! It is a fun learning experience for me and everyone is very nice.
