Christian Anderson '21, a Delaware Valley University pre-professional biology major from Ballston Spa, New York, has been accepted to Cornell University's College of Veterinary Medicine. "I am overjoyed to have been accepted to Cornell," said Anderson. "I could not have succeeded without the wonderful opportunities provided by DelVal, both in the classroom and out." Anderson grew up seeing someone he looked up to practicing veterinary medicine. "My uncle who is a veterinarian went to DelVal for undergraduate school," said Anderson. "Hearing so many good things from him about the small class sizes and the professors was really helpful in making my decision to attend DelVal." When he arrived at DelVal, Anderson quickly got involved in campus life. He is president of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and is a member of Impact, a Christian student organization. He is also a member of the Pre-Vet Club and treasurer of the Class of 2021. Anderson gained additional leadership experience by serving on Student Government Board and serving as the liaison between the students and the academic curriculum committee. He also got to know his professors and gained valuable experience in his field, which helped him when applying to veterinary school. "DelVal made me get out and spend time in my field and try things that I wouldn't have tried otherwise," said Anderson. "I think the research experience I gained at DelVal helped me. My professors were wonderful. They helped me by writing recommendations and giving me advice. There were veterinarians on the faculty who could guide me through the process of pursuing vet school from the day I arrived." Anderson applied what he was learning in the classroom by participating in the Experience360 Program, DelVal's award-winning experiential learning program. Through the program, DelVal undergraduates complete a variety of experiential learning activities. For his E360 activities, Anderson participated in Student Research and Study Abroad. During his study abroad experience, through Loop Abroad, he shadowed veterinarians at a nature preserve in Australia. He also worked at Valley Central, a veterinary hospital in Allentown, Pennsylvania. "I will be bringing that hands-on knowledge into veterinary school," said Anderson. "Delaware Valley University has a wonderful reputation among the veterinary schools of having prepared students who know what they are getting themselves into. DelVal makes sure that reputation is maintained. If you go to DelVal, you are going to be prepared for veterinary school if you're willing to put in the work." After veterinary school, Anderson intends to serve in the United States Army Veterinary Corps. "This path will allow me to serve areas that are less well to do," said Anderson. "I will be able to help farmers with their animals, which helps with relations. A big part of this goal is wanting to serve people. Veterinary medicine isn't just about the animals. It's about the people who are impacted when veterinary care is available as well."
