Information about Brexit, the transition period, the EU Settlement Scheme and what to expect from 2021.

The UK has formally left the EU on 31 January 2020

The UK is now in a transition period until 31 December 2020, while the EU and UK conduct negotiations on their future relationship. During this time, the UK will continue to observe EU rules, which means that there are no changes if you are an EEA or Swiss national, including students who have a dual nationality with a non-EEA/Swiss passport.

Masie Rorison – BSc Agriculture 

Due to the uncertainty of how the pandemic would affect my studies (foolishly thinking COVID would only be around for a year!), I decided to take a year out after completing sixth form.

We run a variety of events for our alumni community each year. If you are interested in hosting your own alumni event with support from the Alumni Office please get in touch: alumni@rau.ac.uk.

Pass on something wonderful ~ Leaving a legacy to the RAU can help to ensure that the University continues its vital work

The College would not have existed without the kindness of local landowners and friends who raised the funds to establish it, and throughout its history gifts left in Wills have had a transformative impact. After taking care of family and friends, please do consider a gift in your Will to the Royal Agricultural University. The RAU and the former Royal Agricultural College hold a special place in the hearts of many.
