NAVLE pass rates by school, as each school reports them
This list gives the NAVLE pass rates of 27 US veterinary colleges in A to Z order, each as the school reports it. Schools define the rate differently: some count only first-time takers, others everyone who sat the exam; some file results by class year, others by testing year. Some print a label that spans an academic year, such as "2024-2025" at Cornell University, which this site files as its second year. Midwestern University-Glendale reports first-time takers by year of testing, while the University of Missouri-Columbia reports the ultimate pass rate of its graduating class. Because the rates measure different things, they are shown as reported, in alphabetical order, and are not compared. Schools whose rate page refuses automated reading, or that publish no rate, are left off; all 42 colleges appear in the vet schools table.
