"I would definitely recommend Exeter College to any prospective students, irrespective of what course they may be interested in.

BA Business Management
Laura
"I study full time, condensed into two days a week. I hope to move onto the BA Business Management degree when I complete the FdA. I studied an Apprenticeship in Business Administration before the degree. I really enjoy studying Business. During one of the units in the first year we had to come up with our own business enterprise idea and I developed a plan to deliver visual impairment awareness training. My tutor is really supportive of my plans and I would like to set up the business when I leave the College. I really enjoy studying the FdA. It is really interactive and engaging. We get given the opportunity to ask lots of questions, everyone is really supportive and encouraging. The College has been really supportive and accommodating with regards my visual impairment as well. I am proud to be a Student Governor now too and advocate for other disabled students here at the College."
