Tours are for prospective students who are 13 years or older since Patterson Hall (the College of Veterinary Medicine) is an educational and medical facility. Tours include various classrooms and associated technology within Patterson Hall, and the Lloyd Veterinary Medical Center (small and large animal hospitals). While a tour of the College of Veterinary Medicine is not appropriate for young, school-aged children, there is a lot to discover at Iowa State University including the ISU Farms.

If you wish to inquire about a large group tour for your students, please contact futuredvm@iastate.edu.
