I like this course. It makes me really happy and I think it is going to lead to great things one day.

All the tutors are really friendly and offer excellent help whenever you need it

Exeter is a wonderful environment, full of warm and welcoming people and my time here has been the best of my life.

Very few contact hours but content is great

As most people know going into a degree containing English, the vast majority of time is taken up with independent research; which at times may make you wonder why you're paying so much per year. At UoE, however, the quality and content of available teaching is so above par, that you're happy to work by yourself when needed. Professors encourage good work and supply incredible resources to ensure that you constantly know exactly what you're doing. Learning an ancient language may at times seem daunting, but both Latin and Ancient Greek are approached thoughtfully and carefully to ensure the best available teaching goes in, so the best possible results come out.
