==History==
The Royal Agricultural University was founded as the Royal Agricultural College in 1842,〔The American journal of education, Volume 22, Henry Barnard, F.C. Brownell, 1871〕 at a meeting of the Fairford and Cirencester Farmers’ Club. Concerned by the lack of government support for education, Robert Jeffreys-Brown addressed the meeting on the "Advantages of a Specific Education for Agricultural Pursuits".〔The History of the Royal Agricultural College, Cirencester Roger Sayce, p.1〕 A prospectus was circulated, a general committee appointed and Earl Bathurst was elected President. Funds were raised by public subscription: much of the support came from the wealthy landowners and farmers of the day; there was no Government support. The first 25 students were admitted in September 1845.
Queen Victoria granted the Royal Charter to the university in 1845 and sovereigns have been patrons ever since, visiting the university in every reign. His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales became President in 1982.
The college gained full university status in 2013.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=BBC News - 'New' universities set to be created in England )〕 It had students in the academic year〔 and has seen a 49% rise in applications between 2008 and 2013. The Royal Agricultural University was named the safest university in the South West in 2013,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Complete University Guide reveals best, worst universities for student-related crimes in South West )〕 and is ranked top in the UK for facilities spend.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Top UK University League Tables and Rankings 2015 )〕
