Events & activities
The events and activities detailed in this section are available to all Exeter Scholars participants, and, though optional, we would encourage you to consider taking part in at least one.
Attendance at one of these events can also count towards making up any missed subject activity strand sessions for those participants based within the south west.
Most universities that you apply to will invite you to attend some form of visit day after they have made you an offer. At the University of Exeter we call these events Offer Holder Visit Days, and they usually take place in February and March after the UCAS application deadline has passed. Building on the experience you may have had at general undergraduate open days, these visits will give you the opportunity to find out, in considerably more detail, about the course you have applied for, the facilities available to you, and the Department that runs it. For this reason, they are an extremely useful tool in helping you to decide whether you wish to accept an offer or not.
For all Exeter Scholars participants who have fulfilled the minimum time commitment for their subject activity strand (either by attending subject activity sessions or participating in the summer residential) and have therefore successfully graduated from the programme, we are pleased to be able to offer you funding for all travel costs incurred by attending a University of Exeter Offer Holder Visit Day.
