Would an academic advisor let you take all the required pre-vet courses knowing that you’re too old to be accepted into vet school?

Yes they will. They work for the school and right now the #1 thing they are worried about is census. Sure you might get a good one that is looking out for your best interest, or you might get one that just wants to keep you enrolled to keep their numbers up.

I went back to school in my mid 30's, but I don't think I would take on a vet/med school route. My degree is appropriate for pre med. There are lots of degree options out there.

My advise is to talk to students in the programs you are considering no matter what program it is. You are more likely to get a glimpse of the truth from students than anyone working for the school.
