What students say about veterinary

A great location to study for both people with an agricultural background or without, the university offers a great veterinary nursing course that focuses on the theoretical as well as the practical parts immensely. Although the university still has some progress to be made within their Student's Union, it is an opportunity for students to let their voices be heard and make a change for the better.

What students say about veterinary

It is a good campus with a gorgeous wiew and moast things any student would beed on a week to week basis on the campus itself. It is a bit out of the way it that allows the students and staff to have a cleaner air quality than of it was inside of a city. They have many animals in the walled gardens to be able to let any animal student be able to get used to holding them without any one animal being too stressed. Graze has amazing food with high quality ingredients and both vegetarian, vegan and gluten free meals available.

What students say about veterinary

The campus is absolutely beautiful, with lovely green spaces and impressive buildings that really create a great atmosphere for studying and hanging out with friends. The facilities are great, too. Plus, the student life here is vibrant, with tons of clubs and events that make it easy to meet people and get involved. However, there are some challenges. Financial support for students from working-class backgrounds can be quite limited, which can lead to stress and make it harder to fully participate in everything the university has to offer. Living in Exeter can also be pricey, with high rents and general costs adding to the financial burden. Overall, it’s a mixed bag, but I’ve definitely enjoyed my time at Exeter!

What students say about veterinary

I really appreciate the library for its peaceful environment, which is perfect for focusing on my studies. However, I've noticed a few areas that could be enhanced for a better experience. For instance, it's great that there are vending machines on the ground floor to grab a quick sandwich or water when hungry, but the absence of a microwave and a water heater is a bit of an inconvenience. This is especially true for times when someone, particularly girls during their menstrual cycle or anyone with a stomachache, might need warm food or a hot drink. It would be wonderful if the school could consider adding these facilities to make our library time even more comfortable.
