This programme is accredited with the South African Veterinary Council (SAVC), Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) and the Australasian Veterinary Boards Council (AVBC).
Each student must apply immediately after first admission to the Registrar of the South African Veterinary Council for registration as a student in Veterinary Science. Registration is compulsory and must be renewed annually for the duration of the study.
After the degree has been conferred, graduates are required to register with the South African Veterinary Council as veterinarians before they may practise in South Africa in this capacity.
A valid NSC/IEB/Cambridge qualification with admission for degree purposes.
Subject requirements and an Admission Point Score (APS) as indicated in the table below. The APS is calculated from the achievement levels obtained in the six 20-credit subjects of the NSC. Life Orientation is excluded when calculating the APS.
Preliminary selection is based on Grade 11 results, and final selection on National Senior Certificate performance in Mathematics, English and Natural Sciences, as well as the Veterinary Value-added Form (VVAF). Additional selection criteria may be used including an interview and a portfolio of evidence, among other things.
There is an opportunity for students with previous higher education experience to also apply for the BVSc programme.
Placement in either the first or second year of the BVSc programme will depend on, among others, merit and subject choices.
A small number of international students may be admitted to the programme, including those from neighbouring Southern African Development Community (SADC) countries. Once applicants have been accepted for this programme, they willreceive a letter of acceptance from the University, which will facilitate their application for a study permit. A valid study permit, obtained in the country of origin, is a prerequisite for registration.
The National Benchmark Test (NBT) may be required for international applicants.

Submission of the Veterinary Value Added Form is not a requirement, but is recommended in order to improve an applicant’s chance for selection, since the score obtained contributes 20% towards the final score used for selection.
These rules will only be applicable to modules that fall within the Faculty of Veterinary Science.
Also refer to UP General Regulations and Rules
A fourth, fifth or final year student who fails a module or modules in a year of study, has to repeat, all the modules for that particular year of study, except modules which were passed with a final mark of at least 65%, for which full exemption is granted.
During the repeat year, exemption from the examination is granted for a module that was passed in the previous year with a final mark of less than 65%; if at least 80% of the practical periods were attended and a year/semester mark of at least 50% was obtained.
Examinations are compulsory in all the modules previously failed, as well as in those modules in which exemption from the examination has not been obtained. If a student fails any of these examinations (or supplementary examination), he or she will be excluded from the programme and will not be permitted to continue.
Exclusion
Students who have not passed the equivalent off at least 50% of semester modules enrolled for in a particular year of study, including dropped modules will be excluded and will not be allowed to re-register in the next year.
Re-admission
A student who has to discontinue his or her studies or has been excluded may apply in writing to the Faculty Admissions Committee for re-admission.

After completing the degree a Compulsory Community Service (CCS) year is required by the state. Graduates will be employed for one year of Compulsory Community Service by the national Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries. More information can be obtained from DAFF.
Clinical experience (including practical work)
Proof of satisfactory completion of prescribed clinical and practical components of the programme as prescribed below must be submitted to the Head: Student Administration of the Faculty, prior to the commencement of the final examinations. Failure to do so may lead to examination refusal.
The BVSc degree is conferred with distinction on a student who has obtained a cumulative average of at least 75%.
