Mature students heading to Exeter

Are there any other mature students going to Exeter this year? If so are you planning on living in halls?

Hello, nice to meet another Mature Student going to Exeter!

I'm 23, (barely Mature haha) and I've applied for halls.

Nash Grove, St Germans and Birks Grange Village were my choices. How about you?

I'm 24 so not that mature either :smile:

but I don't think im going to apply for halls, I've got used to having more space than that and you can get so much more for your money in a shared house but im still undecided... What are you going to be studding?

I think id regret not going into halls. It's a really good social opportunity and it means your more involved in uni society 😄 I'm doing sociology, you?

You have till July to choose accommodation I think so you have plenty of time to decide!

I don't find out the results for my course for another couple of weeks, but as long as I pass the remaining credits I'm going to Exeter! :eek:

But, if I get an offer for Nash Grove I'm taking it. I've met another Mature Student via Facebook whose applied for Nash Grove too and he's 23 like me.

Ooh cool, what part of Canada are you from?

I'm from East Sussex (south east England) so it's only 4 hours in the car to Exeter!

What course are you doing? I'm doing BA Sociology. :smile:

Another mature student going to Exeter, I am 27 so again not overly mature.

And also studying BA Sociology, so its nice to know I will not be the only mature student on my course.

I have applied for halls too, I think it will be a good way to meet people.

Can not wait! :biggrin:

What halls have you applied for?

Chuck me a PM if you wish :smile:

Would be great to chat with another mature student, especially as we're on the same course!

Hey, I'm 26 and will be going to Exeter, studying BA history :smile:

A little bit different from halls but I have applied for one of the family flats at Clydesdale Court.

That'll be good, you'll be able to have the best of two worlds! Having your family close by, but also being able to join in more with uni activities!
