Veterinary medicine at Nottingham is 'best in the UK'
Nottingham vet school
It is the second year in a row that Nottingham has been named number one in the national league tables.

Course tops the national league tables

Nottingham University is the best place to study veterinary medicine in the UK, according to The Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide 2015.

It is the second year in a row that the university's veterinary medicine course has been named number one in the national league tables. Nottingham's animal science course was also top of its category.

Professor Gary England, founding dean of the university's School of Veterinary Medicine and Science, said: "We are exceptionally pleased to once again be recognised as the best place to study veterinary medicine in the UK in The Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide 2015.



"The fact that we have received this placing for the second year running reflects our excellent teaching, facilities, and of course our fantastic students."

The Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide contains full profiles of the UK's universities and leading higher education colleges.

League tables are based on factors including graduate prospects, student satisfaction, entrance qualifications, degree results, research quality, drop out rate, student/staff ratios and spending on services and facilities.

RCVS annual renewal fee for vets due

RCVS' annual renewal fee for veterinary surgeons is now due. Vets must pay their renewal fee before Wednesday, 1 April 2026.

This year's standard annual fee has increased to 431 from last year's 418. This is an approximately three per cent increase, as approved by RCVS Council and the Privy Council.

Tshidi Gardner, RCVS treasurer, said: "The small fee increase will be used to help deliver both our everyday activities and our new ambitious Strategic Plan, which includes aims such as achieving new legislation, reviewing the Codes of Professional Conduct and supporting guidance, and continuing to support the professions through activities such as the Mind Matters Initiative, RCVS Academy and career development."

A full breakdown of the new fees is on the RCVS website. Information about tax relief is available on the UK government website.
