Start a Student Chapter:   

Belonging to a Student Chapter of the Association of Shelter Veterinarians is a great way to learn more about Shelter Medicine, as well as meet and network with other veterinary students and shelter veterinarians throughout the world. ASV offers financial assistance for a limited number of student chapter projects as well as individual ASV memberships to each student belonging to a student chapter. Beginning in 2026, ASV hosting Grand Rounds on the last Monday of every month at 6:30 PM Eastern. Be sure to check the ASV calendar and newsletters for details about upcoming sessions.
