Ontario Veterinary College (OVC) Announcements
This announcement is from OVC.
The OVC is located just under 100 miles from Buffalo, N.Y. Surrounded by gently rolling farmland, Guelph is home to about 120,000 people and a university known for its friendly, supportive and safe environment that welcomes international students. Guelph is a great place to live and learn, just an hour’s drive west of Toronto, Canada’s largest city and airline hub, and less than two hours from the Niagara Falls U.S. border and three hours from Detroit Michigan.
If you want to hear how our US students feel about their experience here, check out their videos on YouTube:
Jonathan Odebralski from Buffalo NY, class of 2012.
Megan Noyes from Huntingtown MD, class of 2010.
Matthew Whittenrich from West Falls NY, class of 2009.
For those of you going to the American Pre-Veterinary Medical Association symposium in Illinois in March, I invite them to come by my booth and chat about our school and program. We will also be hosting two lectures on the emerging role of veterinarians as defenders of public health given by our Director for the Centre for Public Health and Zoonoses.
