Default Oxford - Trinity or Exeter
 
Hey folks,
I had a question about rooms at oxford colleges. Do you typically get a single room or do you have to share? And are a lot of the rooms ensuite or shared bathroom, and if you have to share, how many do you have to share with?
I'm looking specifically at Trinity and Exeter.

Which college do you guys think is better in general? Facilities, environment, kinds of people, opportunities for scholarships and stuff..

And how do I find out about specific scholarships that these places might offer to overseas students? Do I apply separately to these or will I be told about opportunities if I am accepted at Oxford?

Thanks

Exeter!

But that's just because I'm applying there, can't really say anything on specific issues. I think you generally get a single room although sometimes with a shared area.

I amthe unhelpful goblin.

I seem to remember my cousin applied for campus code V, whatever that is. He seemed to like the open day there.

:/ Very helpful, I'm sure.

At Exeter, you will get a single bedroom unless you specifically ask for double sets (which are fun, but I think you can make good use of someone else's if you know them).

I can't really say which is better, because I haven't been to Trinity. Exeter is a friendly college with a tight community, but visit both and see what you think of them
