Cornell Vet School To Admit 33% Larger Class

The move is expected to reduce the shortage of large-animal vets in the state:

Cornell Univerity's [sic] College of Veterinary Medicine plans to expand the size of its 2012 incoming class of students by 30 for a total of 120, fifteen of which will be for students interested in large-animal medicine.

"We have many, many more applicants than we can accept," said Michael Kotlikoff, dean of the College of Veterinary Medicine, one of the State University of New York land grant colleges at Cornell University. The college will also work with the undergraduate College of Agriculture and Life Sciences at Cornell to recruit students interested in large-animal medicine.
