Widening Participation
We want everyone to have equal access to the fantastic opportunities of studying here at the RVC.
Our Widening Participation programmes support learners who are under-represented at RVC to develop their animal interests, studies and careers.
We particularly focus on people from low income backgrounds, areas with low participation in Higher Education, and targeted groups such as care experienced people, asylum seekers, or people from ethnic minority backgrounds.
