About
Welcome to the Lincoln Memorial University - Richard A. Gillespie College of Veterinary Medicine!
As the thirtieth accredited veterinary college in the nation, the LMU-CVM is actively educating future veterinarians that will serve the needs of rural communities throughout the United States. Students attending the LMU-CVM receive a rigorous and rewarding education while actively learning in state-of-the-art facilities located at our Virginia and Tennessee campuses. Following completion of the first three years of courses on campus, the fourth-year curriculum includes distributed clinical education and training that takes place via a national network of community practice partners along with public and corporate organizations and federal and state agencies.
LMU-CVM is seeking to attract and train future veterinarians to serve the needs of rural communities throughout the United States, especially the southern Appalachian region. We are currently seeking bright, hard-working students whose goal is to advance the science and art of veterinary medicine wherever they choose to enter professional practice. It is our firm conviction that our graduates will be lifelong learners committed to a “One Health” philosophy for humans, animals, and the environment, and will become leaders in their communities and the veterinary medical profession. The LMU-CVM welcomes two cohorts of students during each academic year; this includes admittance of 100 students in the spring semester and 125 students in the fall semester.
Students matriculating in the LMU-CVM program will receive a rigorous, demanding and rewarding veterinary medical education in a new, state of the art facility, by faculty who are national leaders in the profession. Students spend three years studying on the University’s main campus in Harrogate, Tennessee, with clinical skills and anatomy classes taking place at the DeBusk Veterinary Teaching Center in Ewing, Virginia. LMU-CVM applies a hybrid workplace-based model involving one-on-one education for each student entering their clinical year. Our well-prepared 4th-year veterinary students obtain real-world learning experiences from highly qualified veterinary professionals in the practice of Veterinary Medicine in various types of veterinary practices across multiple geographies in the United States. Graduates of the LMU-CVM program benefit from a focused real-world community based clinical education and are career-ready on day one following graduation.
