DVM PROGRAM TUITION AND FEES
We recognize that Ross Vet is a great place and offers a tuition rate that is mid-range among U.S. private and out-of-state public veterinary school tuition rates. Our 3.25 years, 10 semester continuous DVM program provides the necessary structure and breaks to help our veterinarian students to earn salaries sooner than their peers.
Ross Vet’s tuition and fees vary based on your academic program and where you are at in the curriculum. Below you will find breakdown of total costs for US students for 2021-2022. Please note that vet school tuition and fees are subject to change.
Our students typically finance the cost of their veterinary school education by combining family resources, student loans from governmental and other agencies, and private sources. Visit our Financial Aid page to better understand your options.

ROSS VET TUITION POLICIES
If you fail any course in any semester, you will be required to repeat that course and will be charged for it. If you are currently in a remedial semester and are required to repeat courses that you have passed previously, you are eligible for a tuition waiver up to a maximum of 50% of the cost of the Ross Vet school tuition. Questions relating to this policy should be directed to the Office of Student Finance.
A withdrawal occurs when your enrollment is permanently discontinued or, in some cases, temporarily interrupted (see Note below). A withdrawal may be official (when you notify the Dean in writing) or unofficial (without written notification). The effective date of withdrawal is normally your last date of attendance.
If you withdraw, Ross Vet's handling of tuition and charges corresponds with federal loan eligibility regulations, which are based on the period attended.
If you are a new student and withdraw prior to the start of the first semester, no tuition charges are due.
If you are a continuing student and withdraw prior to the start of a semester, no tuition/charges are due.
If you withdraw during the first 60% of a semester, your Ross Vet school tuition and related charges are directly prorated based on the portion of the semester that has elapsed. Your student loan eligibility is recalculated, and you and Ross Vet are each proportionally responsible for returning “unearned” Federal Direct loans to lenders. In addition to the lender returns required by federal regulations, with your authorization, Ross Vet returns any remaining credit balance to lenders, decreasing your loan debt for that semester.
If you withdraw after the first 60% of a semester, your full tuition/charges remain due.
Note: Although a leave of absence may be authorized in limited circumstances, failure to return to the University from a leave of absence is considered a withdrawal as of the last date of attendance. Please note that a leave of absence and an academic leave of absence are two different statuses. Refer to the section on Academic Policies in the Student Handbook for a full explanation on an Academic Leave of Absence.
