See Why Our Transfer Students Chose SMU

My decision to come to St. Matthew's was probably one of the best decisions I made for my education. Because SMU is a smaller school, it encouraged me to step out of my comfort zone, which made me a better person as well as set me up to become a better veterinarian.

St. Matthew's gives a lot of students the opportunity to start again - to start afresh. Other students who have come to the program have been successful as a transfer, whether that's transferring first semester or third semester.

One of the biggest things that set St. Matthew's apart from other vet schools is the small class sizes. There was a huge amount of mentorship and aid available from both the teachers and students because of that community.
