Exeter is situated on a beautiful campus that is so green and well looked after by grounds staff. The support available is absolutely amazing ranging from wellbeing support to a first rate careers team that you can go and see at any time for CV or application support for work experience or part-time jobs. The university is located about a 20 minute walk from the city centre making everything in Exeter easily available. There is a good range of shops and Exeter has a good night life. The campus also has many shops and facilities and often has pop up shops where local businesses will come to the campus to sell things such as posters or plants. I would highly recommended Exeter to absolutely anyone!

My course blends contact time with independent work but the online system means that tutors and lecturers are never out of reach if you have any issues or questions. You can ask questions online or go and see lecturers in their office and they are always happy to help.

I was given a studio because the options I had applied to were over subscribed but it has actually been a really great experience. This means I have my own kitchen and bathroom. Birks Grange is however situated at the bottom of a very steep hill appropriately named ‘Cardiac Hill’ but the location is quiet and feels very safe. The staff in the central block are always happy to help and maintenance are regularly making sure everything in your room is up to standard which is reassuring.
