Early Entry Program MSU CVM

The Early Entry Program (EEP) is a unique program of the MSU CVM that allows high-achieving high school seniors to earn pre-approved acceptance into the CVM. Both Mississippi and out-of-state students are eligible for the program. Up to thirty positions are available each year with about 120+ applications generally received for this highly competitive program. Each Early Entry student must be accepted into Mississippi State University. Applications to the EEP and the University are separate applications.

The Mississippi State University College of Veterinary Medicine captures a unique balance of world-class research in animal and public health, high-quality learning experiences, and cutting-edge medical care, all with a family-like atmosphere.

Our passion is to improve the health and well-being of animals for the benefit of the animals, their owners, agribusiness, biomedical research, and, thus, society. We achieve our vision by providing compassionate, world-class health care and diagnostic services and by conducting translational veterinary research (bench to the clinic). We further realize our vision, in part, by investing ourselves in training students and veterinary professionals and encouraging them to embrace and perpetuate our vision. We are driven to accomplish these goals by the knowledge that our calling will better the life of society and the animals entrusted to our care.
