The university s a bit of a mixed bag, I originally loved the it. Beautiful area, great place to study. But after working in the cleaning department I have witness how little the university cares about it’s students and workers, it really is all about money here.

I have really enjoyed my time at the University of Exeter. My course is unique and has been taught by experts in the field. The career services are amazing and there is so much on offer, and the societies and extracurricular activities are great.

The University of Exeter, at the Penryn Campus. The campus is stunning and has a great community feel! The course was everything I hoped it would be! From studying mammals and how to conserve them, to the evolution of life on Earth! I’ve really enjoyed the field course opportunities such as exploring the natural beauty of Cornwall in first year, travelling to Iceland to study life in the warm streams in my second year, and hiking in Costa Rica to study biodiversity! I’ve had some of the best experiences of my life studying here!

Exeter university has a lovely campus. It's very clean and well kept and everything is easy to find. There is a nice mix of architecture with both modern buildings and also older traditional buildings like reed hall and the old library. The careers services are excellent, with a specific careers hub within the forum building. They offer a wide range of services such as part time jobs, cv reviews and advice, general career advice, further education advice, advertising campus events held by prestigious companies and also offer mentor opportunities with professionals from all different fields.

The campus is really good, and most of the student halls are close by so in 1st year you’re never walking too far. The career zone is a good place to get your career starting. The university however is not for naive people if you’re a POC. People will be racist and not care that they’re being racist or derogatory because they know that they will not get in trouble.

Exeter uni is wonderful. I am on the penryn campus, and the course I do is a bioscience. For the money, you don't get a lot of hours per week of uni. Each lecture works out to be pretty expensive, a luckily since the last year they've been filming them which is very handy when you miss a lecture. The location is the best part for me for the whole uni experience.

The campus is a wonderful space to both learn and relax. There are many innovative study spaces which are comfortable and engaging making studying much more fun. There are always events going on and food stalls around so you will never be short of things to do.

Currently a 2nd year modern languages student at the University of Exeter is GREAT! To start off campus is new, Modern and big with lots of study and green spaces. My course is well organised and offers a year abroad scheme I’m excited to start next year and the career services and we’ll organised (you can book in cv and cover letter reviews which I find very helpful)!

Exeter is a fantastic university for the most part. The facilities are good and the campua is beautiful. There are plenty of opportunities in terms of progressing your career or pursuing a sport or other interest. Support networks are also brilliant and the Students Guild do a lot too. Improvements could still be made to the accessibility of Exeter to create more equal opportunities for all.

Wasted 3 years there. The lecturers favours white students. So much discrimination goes on there. The city is shit. I would not recommend this university. You can find better.

Incredible staff and beautiful campus, the university offers so many interesting modules that you are constantly challenged academically. The welfare and support team are unmatched, the societies allow you to grow and the nightlife never ceases.

The university of Exeter undoubtedly has a good academic reputation and almost all of my professors have been great and supportive, and a lot of my classes have really engaged me and have genuinely been interesting overall. However the university also, quite rightfully, has a bad reputation for its lack of student diversity and elitism. It is a university full of privileged, upper-middle and upper class students, and it very much feels like a bigger private school than it does like a public university. So if like me you come from a state school, and particularly if you're politics is more left (even just centre-left), then maybe think of going somewhere else.

The campus is overall nice with good places to study, although there isn't enough of them. Although I never really used it, the career service has helped some people I know

Exeter has a great campus with people from all backrounds. Everywhere is accessible and the sporting facility is exellent, second to none. Exeter as a university has encouraged me to do better in all aspects of work and has provided me with the tools to do so.

I really enjoy the university, some fantastic facilities for both teaching and sport. Shame about the hills, but that’s all I can complain about!

My time at Exeter has been incredible, I was very worried that I would feel excluded when I first arrived but everyone I met was friendly and warm and I have made life-long friends. My psychology course has given me some tough times but overall I could not have hoped for better lecturers and course content, all of it has been a new and loved experience! My life at Exeter is only boring if I want it to be; there are always things to do and it is only when I decide to have a quiet evenning at home that I realise how fast time flies. I would recomment this University to everyone, its enviroment which is very green with fresh air but still has a small city feel, and especially its people and its courses make it an extraordinary once in a lifetime experience!

Very inspirational teachers, everyone is very supportive and always a good atmosphere. I always walk out of the room having learnt new things, and have developed great knowledge and expertise since starting last September.

I am based in medical campus St.Lukes and it is a beautiful place to be in. The giraffe study area is gorgeous and really motivates one to study. Everyone on campus are really friendly and there are tons of facilities available for medical students as well. Career zone is perfect if you are in need of a job, just give them ur details and ur job requirement and they will provide you with job details. Definitely choose to work on campus if possible as the pay is quite high and they treat you well!

I have just recently transferred to this university. Before coming I didn't even know that Exeter existed. There's 2 different campuses, streatham and st.luke campus and I am based in st.luke. As I am doing medicine, I spend most of my time in lecture hall and shadowing doctors in hospitals. Everyone in the university are extremely helpful and friendly, and it's been quite enjoyable to study here. The career zone is very helpful as I was in need of a part time job and they were able to gather my conditions for a job and found me the perfect one. So far I am enjoying studying here, the lecturers are friendly and student service is available 24/7 to help.
