University is good and staff is experienced and very helpful.

Tips: This university is good if you are coming from any other country, as the city is friendly and you feel a lot safe and happy. The only drawback is that the social life sucks, and you can feel the difference as you can get shocked by the various culture that goes around Exeter.

Likes (Safety): The security and nature of people in Exeter are very nice. All of them are friendly and always help if they think you are in trouble, and they are very kind, so it's a lot safe in Exeter, also, at night, you don't feel threatened, only if you encounter a drunk Brit on the weekend, who will always say something or the other way around.

Dislikes (Value for money): There are many other universities that are far better than Exeter and have so much more value, like Leicester and other universities. The only positive is that it comes under the Russel group and it's quite peaceful. But the city is dead, no social life, no fun at all.

Great university and great facility.

Tips: Before joining the university, please make sure you find an accommodation that is in a place and get a contact for 1 year. You can get a scholarship, but that is not too much. Please apply for it so you can get some discount. It is very expensive, just give it a thought and try for the north side universities.

Likes (Part time work): On campus jobs are hard to get, but there are a lot of other off campus jobs like cafes, bars, restaurants and all, and you can find a job here pretty easily. You just have to be presentable and make sure you know what you are doing in the interview, and you can secure a part time quickly.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): This city is great, but it doesn't have options to settle because it is one of the most expensive city to live in, and this includes transport, parking, house, food, and you don't get tasty food, it is just below average, and you have to struggle every day to do the minimum.

Companies are reluctant to sponsor visas, especially in the current economic climate.

Tips: The transition in my first year was very tough, especially because most Indian undergraduate students here come from the upper class, and there is a very visible class divide amongst them. Moreover, many home students also come from families with generational wealth, and that is a huge cultural shift after moving here. If you are from a middle-class or lower-class family, the best thing you can do is find like-minded people who would support you instead of looking down on you for wanting to be independent. That's what I did, and it worked out best for me. As for the city, I love the vibe here. I was a bit sceptical about moving to a small, quiet town as I come from Mumbai, but once I got used to it, I started to appreciate the peaceful quiet.

Likes (Safety): Exeter is a small town and one of the safest cities in the United Kingdom. It does get pretty quiet, but I personally have not felt very unsafe walking home late at night alone or with friends. There is campus security available to protect students, as well as different services for anyone walking home alone at night.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): It is very common for international students to move back to their country after their graduation from the University of Exeter or completely change their area of interest just to get a job in the United Kingdom. The most common reason for this is that the companies are reluctant to sponsor visas, especially in the current economic climate.

Fun with lots of activities.

Tips: Search for scholarships; I received a 5,000 scholarship. Apply before the deadline. The scholarship amount will be deducted from your tuition fee. For example, my tuition fee was 27,500, and after the scholarship deduction, it became 22,500. The UK is truly a place with much to learn.

Likes (Safety): Exeter is a very safe city; in fact, Devon County is considered one of the safest regions in the UK, with a very low crime rate and no racism. I truly enjoyed my time in Exeter. As a part-time worker, I used to work as a cashier, and the people here are very polite and often offer compliments.

Dislikes (Value for money): The tuition fees are very high; don't fall for the trap of Russell groups, like I did. No one cares about which university you graduated from; ultimately, landing a job depends on how well you can showcase your skills to recruiters.

A good short period of time with twists and turns.

Tips: The university is good, and the staff are helpful. I would advise students to be aware of the scholarships that are available, even after starting the course. I was awarded 1000 pounds in hardship funding. Also, interacting with staff regarding your interests or participating in the mentorship program can help you find interesting events that can help you build your career. Overall, I had a good experience at the University of Exeter.
