Amazing campus. So close to beaches like Exmouth and Dawlish so has lots of great places to visit nearby, and the quay is great to walk down to. Very good campus with good facilities and easy to find somewhere to sit and do some work. However, due to it's location in Exeter, Streatham Campus is quite far to walk from most student housing and the centre of town, and the hills don't help either. But this isn't a massive issue and is still a lovely place to study.
Best: Lots of friendly people that are always happy to give advice, Good lectures and a very pretty location. Worst: Learning to live by yourself, however there is lots of support in the uni if you're struggling with it.
facilities are really good, campus look and feel is also good and the student guild do lots of activities and the staff are very supportive
I love the atmosphere of the campus and town. In addition to help helpful all the staff are
A very modern and green campus, that's highly accessible and walkable. I love how close it is to the city centre and they're very supportive of the students, providing both academic and mental health support through many different pathways. However, Exeter is one of the few unis to not have a union and that leads to some worrying outcomes (though there is one that's trying to be set up!)
The best aspect is how the lecturers are really nice. The facilites are great and so is the libary making my course much easier. To improve maybe make the lectures a little more interactive as that helps some people learn better
I am really enjoying studying at the University of Exeter. The campus is beautiful and peaceful, with great facilities and helpful teachers. The courses are well-organized, and there are lots of clubs and activities to join. Exeter is also a lovely, safe city with everything you need close by. Overall, it’s a friendly and supportive place to learn and grow.
The campus makes it very inviting and easy to make friends. Additionally, the students union holds many events with new things appearing on campus every day to keep things interesting. In terms of education, there is always extra support being advertised, and you can always receive extra help if required. The student life can sometimes feel repetitive, with Exeter being a smaller city, but this obviously isn’t something that the university themselves can improve.
The worst part is the hills, but the campus is beautiful and there's so much wellbeing support. There's lots of study spaces, and the New Lafrowda accommodation is very nice.
The teacher are friendly and helpful It takes a while to walking over the strap hill to the main campus( building (forum)
Great feel around campus, proper student life, slight lack of follow up on certain modules and a lot of procedures are a little over bureaucratic. Great student experience overall but can be improved in these areas.
Really nice area and good academic environment. Shops on campus are expensive and there aren't many budget food shops within walking distance from the university
Gorgeous campus, clear communication and innumerable support pathways. Study spaces are usually full if you want a big group around a table

it could have more creative study spaces
Student life is great so is the course societies are fun to join.
Good modern facilities Good field work opportunities Library is large and has good facilities but is often busy so it can be hard to find a space to work. Also library could do with more comfy seating.
