Rhiannon studied Level 3 Extended Diploma in Animal Management with us and then progressed on to study Bio veterinary Science BSC (Hons) at the University of Lincoln.
What I liked most about studying at college was the independence I gained. College helped me a lot in that aspect, as I learnt more about independent learning in preparation for higher education.
What did you enjoy most about the course that you studied?
I studied a variety of subjects including: Introduction to life sciences, research and comparative anatomy and physiology. There wasn't a specific module I liked more than others, as they all benefitted my knowledge and they provided me with different topics that peak my many interests e.g., Hematology being one. I also developed a variety of skills, including time management. These skills have been so valuable in University, as you have more responsibilities and have to meet a number of deadlines.
What are your most memorable moments during your time with us?
Most of my memorable moments were because of college e.g., making friends and going on an amazing trip to South Africa.
What would you like to progress on to next?
I graduated University of Lincoln with a 2:1 (upper class second) in my BSc(Hons) in Bioveterinary Science. Currently, I’m taking a gap year and applying to vet school (in Bristol), getting my driving license, working part time in a local hotel on reception and in the restaurant (The Dunes hotel), whilst also caring for my nan, which has been really rewarding especially in developing my patience and bedside manor skills, both of which will be invaluable in my journey through vet school and future career as a veterinary surgeon. I am looking forward to what this next chapter has to offer and updating you when I get into vet school!
