Hi! I have an offer too so I'll be lurking this thread for an answer. I went to the offer holder day last Wednesday and did ask this but it was quite vague - basically you are split over both campuses but apparently you do more lectures and labs at streatham in first year, so I'm guessing it would be better to pick one nearer to streatham (but not so far north that it's too far to walk to St Luke's) however I'm not sure the names of the best accommodations (and those to stay clear of) so hopefully you'll get a better answer than this. :smile:

Thanks for the reply, I'm going to an offer day on March 11th so I'll ask them the same question and hopefully they won't be as vague!

I applied mid October and heard back around 18th November. Sorry to hear you're still waiting - I know the feeling as I'm still waiting for Bath. I hope you hear back soon :smile:

Hey, I've just been to an offers only visiting day for medical sciences at Exeter and asked this question to a few students doing the same course, they gave the impression most of the medical science students live on Streatham campus somewhere like Lafrawder. As Streatham is the main campus, activities like freshers be more based here as well. There's are also a few shuttle buses running in the morning and afternoon from Streatham and St lukes but only at certain times.

I've also applied for Exeter Medical Science. I've an offer for Cellular and Molecular at Bristol but ideally Exeter is where I'd like to go.
I applied in December and I'm panicking a little now, lol.
Inwas declined from Cardiff, offer from UWE for Biomedical and still awaiting to hear from Bath :smile:

I went to the offer holders day yesterday and as far as i can tell, LaFrowda on Streatham campus seems to be the best option for pretty much the reasons already mentioned in the thread. Good luck!
