University of Exeter

Ucas code: E84

Exeter is a top university, combining world leading research with some of the highest levels of student satisfaction in the country. We've really invested in buildings and facilities over the last few years, with the showpiece building, The Forum, being opened by the Queen. JK Rowling studied in Exeter and based many elements of Harry Potter on our traditions and buildings...

  I like how I get to decided a high amount of what modules I take and that there is a mix of coursework and exams. I don't always enjoy group work, and there is quite alot on my course. Though some groups are really successful, often you get students that like to freeride and unfortunately the lectures don't seem to care and so they are rewarded the same grade for other people's hard and stressful work
