The town, while reasonably nice to look at, is immeasurably dull. Seriously, there is nothing to do. Unless you can live with having nothing of interest within, literally, fifty miles, you should go elsewhere. As for nightlife, if you aren't into cheese, there is very little to do. A noble mention however, for the Cavern, which specialises in Indy and alternative nights.The university itself fails to improve the situation. The union is, frankly, poor. Two bars, and the god-awful "Lemmy". To imagine the true horror of the Lemmy, imagine the sort of clubs you could sneak into when you were 15, and then add the students. There is, however, a good selection of societies and sports clubs to get involved in, with something for everyone, so it isn't all negative.And onto the students. The majority, whatever the propagandists try to spin, are still white middle-class and private schools are over-represented. Although I had heard a bit about this, I really didn't realise how bad it was. Obviously this is not the recipe for a well-balanced and easy to like student population. Yes, there are a lot of sloans and green wellies. The university has done little to address this problem and make itself more inclusive. The uni accommodation's OK, not great, but certainly not terrible, although a really large percentage of rooms are catered, so you get school dinner type meals, three times a day, every day!! The guild's pretty useful.

I have enjoyed my university life. There have been a few draw backs such as sharing with Lancaster University, whom most of the students are rude. The eye candy was especially low because the women here are not very attractive to me.

Situated near the Lakes and the Sea the University of Cumbria in Lancaster is in a great spot to appreciate the outdoors. The Uni lecturers are all extremely knowledgeable within their field and are active in research projects. Due to the small campus and small class numbers you get a really personalised experience and get the opportunity to meet and discuss with your lecturers and have a voice within discussions. The SU offers a wide range of sport societies and there is always opportunity to start a society if there isn't one that already exists. The Gateway building and cafeteria is very modern and the food is always good quality and a decent price not to mention the view from the top.

Friendly and welcoming campus- small campus but I think this is a positive as you are get to know many people and it has more of a community feel. I think accommodation is the only main downside however this is set to change with plans to rebuild some of the halls. Lectures and Tutors- small classes means there is more one-to-one contact with tutors. Tutors are always willing to help. Seminars are practical and enjoyable.

If you are the type of person that finds living in a huge city quite intimidating but still wants to be able to go out on student nights then this is the perfect uni. Its small and friendly and less intimidating but the student life is also really good, there is many places to go but thats what makes it good because the places you do go are always busy and full of people you know!

Kingston is a quality place to live as a student. It has everything you need within walking distance; supermarket, shops, nightclubs. What more do you need as a student!!

This is my first year in the Uni so I do not have anything bad to say yet! I love almost everything about this place, people are amazing, acomodation is good (especially in comparison with school), lectures and seminars are interesting and fun. I am just enjoing my life here!

overall exeter is lovely city for studying, it will take about 15 minutes to from university to city center. The number of modern accommodations just on the campus! it's really amazing ! I can wake up just in half an hour before classes that is quite important for me

The city is very small. It is nice in the sense that everything is walking distance but there is only 3 night clubs in town and one on campus. This creates a quite boring night life...The uni has nice lecture rooms, impressive IT equipment and a massive sports complex which is nice. I (personally) don't like my course since I'm not really interested in it even though most of the lecturers are ok. I would say I have one very good lecturer, one good (always has guest speakers which is nice), three ok and one very bad. Also, having chosen my two optional modules during the first term I have 16 or 19 hours of class a week (depending on which week) and will only have 5 next term...Otherwise, my accommodation (Rowe House in Lafrowda Halls) is nice. The only "special" thing is that there is no separation between the shower and the toilet (no curtain) and the damp has problems going away.Overall, I am very happy with the people I've met at uni so far but not so happy with the rest.

So nice university! Really like it! Everything is for students' : big modern library with perfect facilities and also a lot of thinks not related to education such as clubs and societies. Highly recommended university !
