Anh Viet, studying MSc Accounting and Finance
"It is difficult to put into words. Let's just say Exeter gave me everything I wanted. It was the city, the people (both local people and members of staff), the students and the degree. The city is vibrant but at the same time not too big that you would feel overwhelmed.
The degree is well structured and gives us everything we need for our career."
