did i make a mistake im chose to go to brunel for comp sci and rejected exeter and kent since kent is too far and exeter did have a bad problem with racism
I mean, you cant change the past. Exeter has https://www.exeter.ac.uk/about/speakout/responses/antiracist/
I dont know the differences between the modules for exeter and brunel but, if the only reason was the racism thing…
Did you like exeter more than brunel?

Hi Ibby,
It is really down to your own personal choice and what works best for you really. I am sure that you have done your research on the courses you applied to and the universities you shortlisted and so all will have met criteria important to you. It is perfectly natural to question your decisions, but unless you really are worried about your choice, trust your initial instinct. I am sure you thought it over thoroughly earlier this year. I obviously think Exeter is a great institution, but there will be lots of people who say the same about Brunel too.
You mentioned concerns about racism at the University of Exeter so I would like to try to alleviate those a little too if that is ok (and for anyone else who might read this); there is no hiding that we have had some bad publicity regarding racism in the past, which would rightly so concern many people considering applying to Exeter. The reported incidents are not representative of the whole student/staff body and the University is committed to supporting all students and staff. I cannot speak for individual students at Exeter, but as an institution we certainly do not tolerate any racism and will act decisively on any reported incidents. As an intuition we want to attract the brightest minds, regardless of their background and personal circumstances.
Hope this reassures you a bit - best of luck with the start of term, have a great time!

Hi Ibby,
You did great excluding Uni of Kent. I am the living victim & witness to racism here, not once or twice or thrice. On several occasions. Can go into detail if anyone is interested. And it's never addressed regardless of the complaints raised, so probably it's part of the culture.

Hey,
We're really sorry to read this and to hear that you haven't had a response to previous complaints. To be clear racism has no place within our Kent community. To help us investigate this further please contact our Student Conduct and Complaints Office so that this can be followed up as a priority. You can find their contact information at student.kent.ac.uk/support/student-conduct-and-complaints. Please also report this via our report + support team where further advice and support will be available - reportandsupport.kent.ac.uk/.
