UPEI AVC reclassifies international seats to create unsubsidized seats for Canadian students

The University of Prince Edward Island’s Atlantic Veterinary College will be increasing the number of seats available to Canadian students by reclassifying 19 international seats. Beginning in the 2025-2026 admissions cycle, the 19 seats that were previously designated as international will now be reclassified as “unsubsidized seats.” International students will still be able to access these seats, but the change will enable Canadian applicants who are not selected for a subsidized seat to pursue veterinary studies with tuition and fees that align with tuition costs abroad. “This change preserves our core commitment to the Atlantic provinces, while offering more options to talented students across the country,” said AVC Dean Dr Dominique Griffon. “It ensures that excellence and opportunity remain central to AVC’s mission.”
