Vet schools in Texas
The 2 Texas veterinary colleges on the AAVMC list fetched on October 28, 2026 take applications through TMDSAS rather than VMCAS. Texas A&M University in College Station set its deadline at August 31, 2026, 11:59 p.m. CDT. Texas Tech University in Lubbock used the same TMDSAS date and then a school secondary application due September 30, 2026. Texas A&M reports full accreditation, and Texas Tech says the AVMA Council on Education accredited it in October 2025.
