The Offical Exeter 2009 Thread!!!!

Then this thread is for me :smile:

Cause seriously considering entering Exeter in 2009 as same as u it will be my firm choice due to simple reason no other university offers such great conditions for Arabic and Middle Eastern as Exeter therefore,ill be going for it.. :smile:

Although,im a bit worried about the polulation of the town,which is not that big so it might difficult to find a part-time job..but well,thats still ahead..i should get an offer first,then decide on it.. :wink:

Oh and almost forgot to mention ,im going to study Arabic and Middle Eastern studies

I'd say a bigger factor is whether you're going to be available to work all year - because obviously employers may not be all that keen to hire people who are going to be around for ten weeks, then vanish for a bit, then come back... As a city, though, even if it isn't all that big population-wise, Exeter has lots of shops etc. where you could look for work.

well i'm thinking of it cos i wanna do a sandwich course and Exeter is the only one that offers it as well as Kent and Brunel in the area, but i like countryside so the seaside would be good and the fact it has a language centre as well which i really wanted. how about you?

I've got a place at Exeter in 2009 for Arabic (currently on my gap year) Leeds is ****e compared... The facilities at Exeter are much better, much more beautiful campus, better links with Arabic speaking countries, etc.

I can't wait :biggrin:

ooh really? only Arabic right? thats nice :smile:

Well,i agree Exeter is much better than Leeds, but then Exeter and Leeds to my point of view have quite the same way of teaching from all my choices,cause in other universities ill be applying it differs a lot..so i just picked them in case im not accepted there..

I went to the Exeter open day in June, loved the place! Got to look around the accomodation and speak to some lecturers, well worth the visit.

i'm going to the open day on the 20 september, its 4 hours by train!! i'm gonna be so bored, but i think open days are quite important, but do you think open day will effect your application? cos if we apply to exter, do you think it will help if we've been to the open day? cos they do take down our name don't they?

Whether or not you visit for an open day won't affect your application at all, don't worry. They probably only take your names in order to send you information, or just simply to have a rough estimate of how many people are going to be there.

But it's obviously important in terms of finding out whether Exeter feels like somewhere you want to come, and whether you'd be happy spending several years here studying.

I'm definitely going to be applying for German and IR... It was never my first choice, but of all the universities I have considered, it is the only one that has remained consistent!...
