mix of all people, lovely location, great facilities, think it could be improved by more transport and cheaper transport options.
student union could be improved (e.g. subsidising food and drink more).

When I was looking at which University to go to, I spent hours browsing courses, module content and University awards. However, after I went to an open day at the University of Exeter, I instantly knew my search had concluded. Not only is it in the top-15 most-targeted universities by UK employers, but the campus itself is something out of a movie (literally... it appears as the set in many films).
Lovely city with so much to do, and the surrounding areas are amazing! The university is really good especially for my course, really enjoying it.
International student mentoring and advicing could be slightly better. More opportunities for students who are chasing academic careers instead of industry can be shown, this I say is the biggest thing that is missing.
I'm a huge fan of the university as a place, and the quality of the teaching has been consistently high. That being said, I'm not a huge fan of my department being put up for cuts disproportionate to other departments, or of a huge number of the staff who I rely on being told they might be made redundant for no reason.
The campus is really green and the facilities are excellent in general. When it comes to sports facilities, the outdoor pitches are amazing and there is dedicated indoor space for various sports (including cricket and tennis.). But to improve them, a 25-50m pool and a rowing tank could be added. The study spaces are good in general but during busy periods on campus it can be difficult to find a place to sit.
BEST- campus, social life, teachers IMPROVED- more funding for humanities
More events
The scenery makes the vibe and energy for students so great, and there is very accessible support from staff who are friendly. Residence life is also great for finding fun things to do as well as ensuring our accommodation experience is positive
The university offers lots of support and there is a good balance between studying and having a social life.
It’s a lovely campus and course However the student culture can be very posh and it’s hard to deal with if your not from that background
4.3
