Student

A student was an individual obtaining an education, usually at a school, college, university, or other academic institution.

School students
A school student, or pupil (TV: School Reunion) was an individual who studied at a school.

School students typically studied a range of subjects including English, mathematics, (TV: The Caretaker) science and history. (TV: An Unearthly Child)

In the United Kingdom, students often wore uniforms which bore the logo and colours of the schools they attended. (TV: School Reunion, The Caretaker) In the United States, school students tended to wear casual clothes rather than a uniform. (TV: The Return of Doctor Mysterio)

Sixth form students
A sixth form student was an individual who were in sixth form.

Although usually older than school students, sixth form students were similar in that they studied a variety of subjects. (TV: For Tonight We Might Die)

University students
A university student was an individual who studied at a university.

Unlike school and college students, university students usually studied just one subject. They were often referred to as a student of their chosen subject, for example both Liz Shaw (TV: Spearhead from Space) and Martha Jones studied medicine and were therefore referred to as "medical students". (TV: Smith and Jones)

A student in their first year of university could be referred to as a fresher. (TV: Knock Knock) A student who completed university was known as graduate of that university. (AUDIO: Autumn, TV: Death in Heaven)

University students could be studying towards a degree (TV: Spearhead from Space) or a more advanced diploma, such as a Doctorate. (TV: The God Complex)

Subjects studied at university could be as diverse as cheesemaking. (TV: The God Complex)

Student teachers
In 1976, Richard Hawton was taught by a student teacher who he remembered in a response to Doctor Who?'s request for sightings of the then missing Rose Tyler following the Dummy Massacre in 2005, commenting that she looked so much like his student teacher though he reasoned that it surely could not be her. (PROSE: The Doctor Was Involved in the Dummy Massacre)

Time Lord students
The Deca were a group of top-ranked students at the Time Lord Academy. (PROSE: Divided Loyalties) The Doctor was one of them, even though he did not excel academically, graduating only with a 51% pass rate on the second attempt. Romana, however, achieved a "Triple First" when she was at the Academy centuries later. (TV: The Ribos Operation)
