Externships

To Offer an Externship at your facility

We invite external veterinary clinics, hospitals, and other institutions to offer externships for Ä¢¹½tv veterinary students. These opportunities provide valuable new experiences and professional connections for our students. Please complete the form below to express interest in offering an externship opportunity to an Ä¢¹½tv DVM student. The Office of Admissions and Student Success will review and approve the request prior to sharing with the students. 

to Request an  Externship at lsu vetmed

Ä¢¹½tv Vet Med offers externship opportunities for veterinary students currently enrolled at other veterinary schools. Students interested in participating are encouraged to fill out the form below to learn more and begin the application process, which may take several weeks to complete. As part of the application, externs must provide proof of health insurance and current rabies vaccination.

International students are welcome to apply but are responsible for securing their own visas and any required documentation to enter the United States, as Ä¢¹½tv cannot assist with this process. Please note that, in accordance with Ä¢¹½tv Risk Management liability policies, international students may participate in observational experiences only and are not permitted to engage in hands-on clinical activities during their externship.
