Okay, I'm a bit late to the boat here, but here's some advice based on your current situation. It might be a bit blunt, but hopefully it's super honest as to what I think would be most helpful for you to hear right now.
Somewhat disagreeing with what people have said above BUT. Unless it is only your first year holding you back, I do not think that you should be looking at WCVM. That's not my UCVM bias, it's an honest representation of chances of getting in. Unless you pull your GPA significantly above 3.0, I'm pretty sure the cut off for interviews (even if you moved to Saskatchewan or Manitoba) will be well out of reach. WCVM places a super strong emphasis on grades as a deciding factor of whether or not you get in when compared to UCVM. So I think aiming for UCVM will be a more attainable goal for you (again, unless that whole dropping your first year if over 150 credits is going to make a big GPA difference).
That said, retake some of your pre-req courses. Get a tutor! The only reason I passed OCHEM-II was because I got a really good tutor. There's no shame in it, and getting the grade in those classes will give you a good shot at getting an interview. Basically, if you make the grade cut-off and have some good experience and LOR, you have a pretty good shot at getting yourself an interview spot! My pre-req GPA was pretty low (I don't know exactly what it was, but I wanna say maybe in a 3.2ish range? With my overall GPA being a 3.8 ish). And people with 3.0 GPAs have been offered interviews in the past! To help with that, get experience volunteering with large animal vets! UCVM loves seeing that and it would also probably help pushing you up for that interview spot! And once you get that interview, it's worth like 60% of whether you get in whereas the interview is weighed much less heavily at WCVM. It make take some time to build that GPA and experience, but I did essentially 6 years of university before getting into vet school. You still have so much time to get yourself a strong application! You can do it, if you can just get that pre-req GPA above a 3! Like
@awesomenessity said, contacting admissions is also a great way to go! They are awesome!
Now, this may not make me super popular but I do feel the need to say it: You might need to take a long, hard look at why your GPA is lower. It sounds like this year you've done a whole lot better recently since you've been able to pull up 0.5 of a grade point, and that's awesome! But honestly, the first year of vet school is ROUGH. It is all -ologies and science classes that are so much more than anything you'll ever learn in undergrad (and apparently it doesn't get better in later years). UCVM does take some of the edge off because we get to start our clinical skills in first year but it is so much harder than undergrad ever was. I don't know your situation or whether there were extenuating circumstances adding into the lower GPA and all of those are perfectly valid to take into consideration as to why your GPA might have been lower to start off with. But I posted my GPA numbers above. And right now, I am doing okay in vet school. Mostly B's. But the harder subjects - especially anatomy and physiology - are a massive struggle. I have a C- to a C ish right now in physiology, pending our latest midterm. My greatest claim to fame in anatomy is that at least I haven't failed any tests. Solid D there. And no matter how hard I work, I can't seem to pull up above that point because there is just so much that you need to know and no time in which to learn it. I wanted to bring this up because I also struggled (again, GPA 3.2 = struggled for me) with the pre-req courses, even with getting a tutor for some of them. And if it weren't for really great friends like
@awesomenessity helping me in evaluating my study habits and improving them, I might actually be failing things. I just don't want you to work really hard to get your grades up and then get hit by the train of the beast called vet school. I am absolutely not saying that you can't do it! On the contrary, I'm rooting for you! But vet school is so, so difficult. You need to be ready. And I really wish someone had told me to take a hard look at my work ethic and studying techniques through my hard university courses because I feel like it would have made me a better person going into vet school, and better prepared. I don't even know if this massive paragraph makes any sense, but I really hope it does and gives you goals, not making you scared to go for them!
Wow this turned kind of long and ranty. TL;DR: Re-take pre-reqs, get some large animal experience to help with getting an interview, have a good long look at why your GPA is the way it is and whether you need to evaluate your study/learning habits to make your long term goal of succeeding through vet school a reality!
Again, we're rooting for you!
