Your Welcome Pack is full of useful information to help you prepare before you arrive at the RVC. This Welcome pack will take you step-by-step through preparation, our online induction KickStart, campus welcome events through to daily student life.
KickStart your year at the RVC

Our online course will help you think about the mix of different learning activities - whether small group, digital or independent - and how you can become part of our unique RVC community.
KickStart is divided into the 5 sections and is made up of videos, quizzes, ideas and more to help.

You can work through KickStart at your own pace and can return to it at any point throughout your course. KickStart is your first step in getting ahead at the RVC.
