Abi, MSc in Island Biodiversity and Conservation
“The numerous opportunities for support was one of the reasons that I decided on the University of Exeter, and I am very grateful to be in receipt of a £2,000 bursary to travel to the Caribbean to complete my research project next year. Additionally, the University offers some non-competitive bursaries, aimed at students from disadvantaged backgrounds. This includes care leavers and those with household incomes of £30,000 or less.”
Giang Chu, MSc student in Sustainable Business Management
"Receiving the scholarships has truly transformed my experience at the University of Exeter. First and foremost, the financial relief has allowed me to focus on my studies and fully immerse myself in campus life without worrying about my financial situation.
The scholarships have also given me the confidence and motivation to engage in research opportunities that align with my passion for sustainable tourism."
Gowri, MSc Digital Marketing
"The University of Exeter also offers a variety of part-time job opportunities on campus. You can work as a retail assistant in the Market Place (the campus shop), work in one of the cafés, or take on roles as a digital marketing assistant or student content ambassador (just like I did). These positions not only provide extra income but also valuable work experience by equipping you with transferable skills that make you a stronger candidate post graduation."
Shunying (Daisy) MSc Financial Technology
"The South West is full of free and low-cost activities, from hikes along the coast to exploring charming villages. On-campus societies often host free or heavily subsidized events, providing endless opportunities for affordable fun. Joining these groups not only helps you meet new people but also stretches your entertainment budget."
