This major is derived from an articulation agreement between Columbus State Community College's Veterinary Technology Program, and Otterbein's Department of Equine Science. At the end of four years, with the successful completion of requirements from both institutions, the student will receive the Associate of Applied Science degree from Columbus State Community College, the Baccalaureate degree from Otterbein College and be eligible to take the Veterinary Technician National Examination and become registered as a Veterinary Technician by the Ohio Veterinary Medical Licensing Board.
Columbus State Community College's Veterinary Technology Program is accredited by the American Veterinary Medical Association. Students complete half of their clinical experience at The Ohio State University Veterinary Teaching Hospital and half at a veterinary medical practice. Students should be aware that Columbus State's tuition cost varies depending upon Ohio residency status.
