Student American Veterinary Medicine Association (SAVMA)

Hey Everyone! My name is Tomi, I'm currently in BVetMed3. I’m from Hungary, but I grew up in Belgium. I love travelling, learning about different cultures and I’m also a big foodie. I really enjoy exploring London, you can often find me Wednesday nights around Leicester Square or catching a show in the West End. I’m interested in small animal internal medicine and academia. I’m currently the SAVMA Representative on the SU Council and your Senior Delegate to the national SAVMA House of Delegates. I’m also the student liaison on the Board of Director of the American Association of Veterinary Colleges. If you have any questions you can always contact me! I look forward to meeting you all soon!

RVC SAVMA is a society dedicated to fostering community and collaboration among American, British, and other international students. Our chapter hosts multiple events throughout the year including wet labs, seminars, and well-being get-togethers throughout the year. Our members can also apply for grants to fund external costs that are incurred due to AHEMS and EMS throughout their time at the RVC as well as conference travel. As a member, you also have access to all the resources and opportunities provided by National SAVMA, can sign up for professional liability insurance, and travel to conferences such as SAVMA Symposium and the AVMA Convention. We may have America in our name but we are here for all students!

Want to join? You can join us by choosing to become a SAVMA member during your enrollment at not extra cost!
