Many students find that they can use their federal, state, and institutional aid, loans, and scholarships to pay the semester fee. You may be able to use your current semester tuition toward your Global Veterinary Semester Abroad and get credit at your school, and we can help you with this process. Additionally, students can choose to receive a transcript from our university partner, a fully accredited US-based institution. Please contact us so we can help you figure out your options.

The AVMA says “If you have the opportunity to work… for veterinarians who work with different species, that’s a bonus that can make you more appealing to a veterinary school admissions committee.” We’re proud to offer you that opportunity!

How It Works

Want to fit a semester abroad in three countries into your pre-veterinary education path? Here’s how it can work for you!

This page is a general overview of the process of Global Veterinary Semester Abroad, from applying to attending. For more detailed information on any of these points or personalized assistance, contact us! We are happy to help.

What is the Global Veterinary Semester Abroad?

The Global Veterinary Semester Abroad is a full semester designed for pre-vet students, or students interested in animal care and conservation. It takes place in Thailand, Costa Rica, and South Africa over 12 weeks and you can earn a total of 18 credits. The program does not take place on a college campus, but instead in elephant sanctuaries, dog clinics, marine research centers, and other animal facilities.

This program is a long, challenging travel program during which we will ask a lot of you, and you will demand a lot of yourself. There are times during the program where there is limited or no wifi, and some housing does not have air conditioning in the rooms. There is very little down-time and your days are very full and generally scheduled for you.

Loop Abroad is not a college. Participants in the Global Veterinary Semester Abroad will receive their credits and transcript from University of Findlay, our school of record in the US. For students who are currently in college, we can help you work with your school to transfer these credits. For participants not currently in school, you will still receive a transcript from University of Findlay.

How much does it cost?

The tuition for the Global Veterinary Semester Abroad is $21,950. It includes tuition, housing, meals, transport to class each day, transport within the program country, books, and lab fees. It does not include international airfare or health insurance costs.

If your semester has a one-week break, you will be responsible for your own housing, meals, and activities, and can either stay in Chiang Mai, Thailand (or your other break location) or travel from there during that week (at your own expense). Students will be able to stay in their student housing during that time if they choose. The Summer semester does not include a break.

There will be no group flight for this program. This means that on some flight itineraries, you may be flying alone or with a small number of other students who are participating in the Global Veterinary Semester Abroad or otherwise connecting two-week Loop Abroad programs. We will be able to help you find a flight itinerary that meets all of our arrival and departure time requirements for each country. Please DO NOT BOOK any airfare for this program without communicating with Loop Abroad to receive approval first.

Financial aid options are available. Loop Abroad offers up to $5,000 in need-based discounts per students. If you are currently a college student, we can assist you in using federal financial aid toward your Loop Abroad tuition.

Who Can Attend the Global Veterinary Semester Abroad?

This program is open to applicants age 18 and over. Most students are 18 to 25. You can be a citizen or resident of any country. You do not need to currently be in school. All courses are taught in English - no foreign language skills are necessary.

Competitive applicants plan to apply to vet school or otherwise work in a career with animals and have a demonstrated interest in working in animal science. No specific skills or experiences are required.

Step 1: Talk to your advisor. If you are currently in school, we suggest that you meet with your advisor about a semester abroad and the credits you would be transferring into your degree program. Usually your advisor will want to see syllabi for all the courses. For a copy of all the syllabi, please send an email to [email protected].

Ask your advisor to approve the credits so that you may approach your study abroad office with your plans to participate in a Loop Abroad semester. Note that the course load of 18 credits is a complete semester and you are expected to participate in all courses and class meetings during the semester.

Step 2: Apply for admission. You can apply for admission at any time, but it is best to apply at least a few months in advance so you have time to meet with the various offices on your campus and make arrangements for your study abroad. In your application, you can indicate if you are applying for financial aid from Loop Abroad, which can award need-based funds of up to $5,000 per student. You would get notice of any financial aid award with notice of admission.

The application costs $50 and includes an essay, transcript, and the contact info for two academic or professional references (like a professor or manager). Once we have a complete application, it generally takes us about a week to get you an admissions decision. You do not have to pay any program deposit until you decide that you want to attend.

Step 3: Secure funding for your semester. Once you are admitted and have your credits and study abroad experience confirmed, it is sometimes possible to use your federal financial aid if you are currently enrolled in a US college or university. Your financial aid office can help you with this process, and we will also assist you. In some cases, your school will require specific documentation from Loop Abroad and we are able to work with them to make this semester financially feasible for you.

Step 4: Pay deposit and submit necessary paperwork. Before you can be confirmed as a participating student, you must pay the deposit to hold your spot in the upcoming semester. There are only 12 spots available in order to keep the class sizes small. You will also have to complete enrollment paperwork that includes a medical form.

Step 5: Plan for your travel! Loop staff will send you an email with any logistical requirements. We can help you with everything from selecting return flights to deciding what to pack!

Step 6: You're on your way! During your semester, staff is available 24/7 to support you. You will live with your fellow students and your travel between course locations will be arranged as a group by Loop Abroad, with staff traveling with you. The semester is a busy, packed schedule with lots of places to go and lots of work to do, and we’ll do it all as a group. If you have questions about the Global Veterinary Semester Abroad, from applications to safety and everything in between, reach out to us!

Coursework

The Global Veterinary Semester gives you a chance to pack a full pre-veterinary semester abroad into your summer. You’ll learn about veterinary medicine in:

  • Thailand: small animal clinic, elephant sanctuary, and marine center
  • Costa Rica: sea turtle research and rainforest wildlife rescue
  • South Africa: zoo medicine and big cats

At each location, your coursework is supplemented by culture and adventure activities that give you a chance to explore the world from new perspectives. Housing, meals, and all activities are included in your tuition.

The semester is divided into blocks so that you can focus on one course at a time immersed in a shelter, sanctuary, research, or clinic setting. With each block, you will build and practice new knowledge and skills. The coursework is demanding, but you will go home with memories of a lifetime and key experiences that will prepare you for your veterinary training and career.

The Global Veterinary Semester Abroad is comparable to a full semester of courses, including labs at your home institution, and offers a total of 18 course credits.

Please note: we have listed credits based on the number of hours of instruction, homework, and fieldwork in each course. But the number of credits you receive at your school will vary depending on how you apply for credit and how your school grants it. Through our university partner (School of Record), we can offer all students a full transcript.

Thailand: Here you’ll experience one-week learning small animal medicine in a dog and cat clinic, one week working with elephants, one week of exploring ecosystems throughout Thailand, and one week of marine conservation and diving on Koh Tao island!

Costa Rica: You will spend 4 weeks in Costa Rica completing two programs: The Costa Rica Veterinary Medicine program and the Costa Rica Sea Turtle Conservation and Research program. This month will give you a chance to explore different facets and areas of conservation in Costa Rica, and get both veterinary experience and marine research experience. 

South Africa: You’ll spend two weeks at a zoo learning about captive animal welfare on several rotations including big cats, small cats, primates, reptiles, and raptor species. The other two weeks will be at a cheetah conservation facility where you will learn more about rewilding cheetahs and other conservation projects. During your time in South Africa, you will go on two safari weekend trips- one in Pilanesberg National Park and one in Kruger National Park.

These are a great, flexible way to improve the breadth or depth of your knowledge and strengthen your application to vet school.

The Global Veterinary Semester Abroad is made up of the following courses from our various 2-week programs. Click on the links below for detailed information about each course as well as a layout of the itinerary (order of programs may vary).

The exact dates, order of courses, and specific course activities are subject to change.

Tuition

We know studying abroad is a big investment. If you are currently in college or university, we can help you to work with your school to get credit for your Loop Abroad courses and be able to access federal financial aid to use toward your Loop Abroad tuition.

If you are considering applying, let us know! We can walk you through each step from talking with your school advisors to making the program affordable for you.

Semester Tuition

The Global Veterinary Semester Abroad comprehensive fee of $21,950 covers much more than just tuition:

  • Tuition for 18 course credits, including an official transcript from our university partner, University of Findlay
  • Housing in all program locations (accommodation during break not included)
  • All meals during the semester (except during break week)
  • Activities in every location (such as ziplining, rafting, etc.)
  • Transportation to class each day and transportation for field courses, including airfare within Thailand between program locations
  • Course readings and materials (no books to purchase)
  • Clinic and lab supplies
  • SCUBA certification

That means that you do not pay any additional fees for labs, books, housing, or meals during your program.

Note: The semester fee DOES NOT include international airfare. We can help you to organize your travel itinerary to and from your home airport.

Financial Aid

Many students studying abroad use financial aid such as grants, scholarships, and/or loans to help pay their tuition and program fees.

Because we offer transcripts through our US university partner (School of Record), you may be able to use your state, federal, and/or institutional aid and loans towards the semester tuition. Generally, the first step is to get your credits approved by your current school – and we are happy to help!

There are also several outside scholarships designed for students studying abroad. We suggest that you talk to your financial aid office for recommendations. We will support your application!

Loop Abroad also offers a limited number of awards for semester students ranging from $500 to $5,000 based on qualifications and financial need.

If you aren’t sure where to start, please contact us! The sooner you start the process, the easier it is to communicate with your school about credits and financial aid.

Vet Hours

We understand pre-vets. You can’t let a semester pass without making progress towards a competitive vet school application. Join us for animal experiences you can’t get anywhere else on the planet all while developing hands-on veterinary skills, building your resume, and having an amazing adventure around the world. You won’t waste a moment.

Research and Veterinary Experience Hours

When you apply to vet school, you have to describe and record hours for three kinds of experiences: research experiences, veterinary experiences, and animal experiences.

In our semester, you’ll log 200+ hours working with a veterinarian (DVM) and 85+ additional hours of animal experience and research.

Explore Many Areas of Veterinary Medicine

Studying abroad in three different countries means you’ll get to experience a ton of different areas of veterinary medicine, which can be an advantage for admission to vet school. North Carolina State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine says:
“… [S]upervised experiences in three or more different areas are highly recommended for a competitive application…. small animal, large animal, research, food animal production, exotic, aquatic, wildlife, zoological medicine”

Loop offers veterinarian-supervised experiences in six of these areas!

  • Small animals
  • Research
  • Exotic animals
  • Aquatic animals
  • Wildlife
  • Zoological medicine

Referring to who gets into vet school, the AVMA says…
“If you have the opportunity to work …for veterinarians who work with different species, that’s a bonus that can make you more appealing to a veterinary school admissions committee. Get as much experience as you can while you have the opportunity.”

The Global Veterinary Semester Abroad gives you varied experience in a module schedule, so you’ll have one course at a time, and you and your classmates can focus on learning material and skills from the vet or vets leading your course. You’ll also get to know your vets well because of the small class size and hands-on nature of your coursework, which allows you to learn about their experience in the veterinary profession and allows them to get to know you well enough to write recommendation letters.

Cross-cultural Shelter and Clinical Experience

According to the AVMA, “volunteering at shelters or rescues can provide animal handling experience that will help make you a better candidate [for veterinary school].”

With Loop, you’ll study shelter management while assisting in a shelter. You’ll study marine vertebrates and then identify them while diving over a coral reef. You aren’t just shadowing at the clinic down the road — you’re learning first-hand about the communication challenges of practicing in cross-cultural organizations.

Our semester is designed to give you not only technical knowledge and animal handling experience, but the cultural and communication skills to make the most of your training.

Workshops to Support you in your Veterinary Goals

We offer faculty-led workshops and advising to help you with every aspect of applying to Veterinary School and advancing your career. Covered topics include:

  • Writing and updating a resume
  • How to talk about your experiences in interviews
  • Seeking and finding additional experience
  • Securing letters of recommendation
  • Writing an admissions essay
  • The vet school application process
  • Veterinary career options

How to Apply

The Global Veterinary Semester Abroad is open to students from all academic backgrounds, not just pre-vet students.

We welcome students to study with us as a gap year after high school to decide if they want to pursue a veterinary education. We also welcome students who have completed an undergraduate degree but want to enhance their vet school application.

We are proud to often host students on their first trip abroad as well as students who are seasoned international travelers. You do not need to be a US citizen to apply.

We understand studying abroad is a big decision — we’ll walk you through every step. We can help you figure out if it’s a good fit and how research, internship, and course credit, as well as financial aid, would work for you.

Who Can Apply

In order to enroll in the Global Veterinary Semester Abroad, applicants must meet the following requirements by the time the semester begins.

  • Eighteen years or older (most students are 18 to 25)
  • High School diploma or equivalent
  • Passport valid for 6 months from the end of the program
  • Healthy enough to travel and work outside in hot, humid climate
  • Able to swim

What makes a competitive applicant?

Each course in the Global Veterinary Semester Abroad is a group of up to 12 students, who work closely with one another and with their veterinarians and instructors. For this reason, the #1 skill we look for in an application is the ability to work as part of a team.

We’re looking for students who understand what the Global Veterinary Semester Abroad entails and are eager to work hard, support their classmates, and get their hands dirty.

We don’t require any specific animal experience, but a demonstrated interest in working with animals or in veterinary medicine will strengthen your application. We don’t require a certain GPA, but strong applicants generally have a GPA of 3.0 or greater. Your application is more than just your GPA. We do not consider standardized test scores in our admissions decisions.
