Exeter College
About the college
Exeter is the fourth-oldest college in Oxford, with a small, friendly and inclusive community of students and staff.
Accommodation is provided for three years of an undergraduate’s course and probably for a fourth year. All first-year students live on the main college site on Turl Street. Other college accommodation is in vibrant East Oxford (with self-catering facilities), and the modern Cohen Quadrangle in fashionable Jericho. Three meals a day can be eaten in Hall during term.
Facilities include:
- on-site gym
- stunning dining hall
- bar
- chapel
- music practice rooms
- performance space
- learning space
- sports ground.
We have a beautiful garden, with views over Radcliffe Square. Exeter is home to a wide range of student groups, clubs and societies, including our excellent student-led choir, music, theatre and sports teams.
