AVIP Requirements and Selection
Affiliated Veterinary Instructional Partners (AVIPs) play a vital role in the clinical education of students at Utah State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine. Before hosting students, AVIPs are evaluated by the AVIP Approval Committee (AAC) to ensure that each clinical experience meets the college’s standards for student safety and high-quality education.
Please watch this short 3-minute video Introduction to Becoming an AVIP, before filling out an application. You may also enjoy exploring other helpful resources on this page, such as past issues of The AVIP Preceptor Communiqué, our AVIP training modules, and answers to frequently asked questions about hosting veterinary students during their clinical year.
Whatever you choose to explore, please don’t forget to complete both your Preceptor and Site applications. We sincerely appreciate your interest in partnering with Utah State University College of Veterinary Medicine to mentor and train the next generation of veterinarians!"
Remuneration: Our AVIPs will receive a professional fee and site overhead allocation for hosting students. The amount will be determined upon consideration.
