Upper bounds on the Kolmogorov distance (and, equivalently in this case, on the total variation distance) between the Student distribution with p degrees of freedom (SD_p) and the standard normal distribution are obtained. These bounds are in a certain sense best possible, and the corresponding relative errors are small even for moderate values of p. The same bounds hold on the closeness between SD_p and SD_q with q>p.
