Question
Hello! I know this isn't QUITE in your field of questions to ask, but I'm sure you know the answer. How impossible is it to get a master's degree in a graduate program for veterinary medicine if you have an undergraduate degree in something like art or music?

Answer
There are really no Master's degree programs in veterinary medicine unless you are already a doctor.  There are master's degrees in many animal related things dealing with nutrition, physiology, pharmacology, etc., but with an Art degree, there would be many pre-requisites required for consideration.
