For the purpose of this subrule, “qualified applicant” means a person who is undertaking internship or residency training at Iowa State University College of Veterinary Medicine.

Verification of internship or residency shall consist of an endorsement signed by the dean of the school and submitted directly to the board by the school. A temporary educational permit expires upon termination of the permit holder’s internship or residency program, as reported by the dean of the school of veterinary medicine. An initial temporary educational permit may be issued by the board for a term of up to two years. An initial temporary educational permit may be renewed by the board for a term of up to one year. No more than two renewals will be granted to the same person.
