Support for you – from classroom to career
AVMA's My Veterinary Life® website helps you thrive as you prepare to start your veterinary career. Find wellbeing, financial, and professional tools designed just for students and early-career veterinarians.
The Student American Veterinary Medical Association (SAVMA) was created in 1969 as the national organization for veterinary students, in order to foster communication between individual chapters. Currently, SAVMA is comprised of 40 student chapters (34 in the U.S., 1 in Canada, 2 in the Caribbean, and 3 in the United Kingdom) and one associate organization, representing a total of over 20,000 veterinary student members.
SAVMA's mission is to support, empower, and inspire all veterinary students in improving their lives, education and career, along with securing a better future for our profession through collaboration with our parent organization, the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA).
