Monday 15 July 2024 Sabina's Diary: My Exeter University Summer Academy Experience The first day at Exeter was quite eventful. It started off a bit rough since I missed my train, but I eventually made my way to Exeter and met with the others. We began with lunch, sorted into groups, and our student ambassador, Emily, gave us a tour of the beautiful, green, but rather hilly campus. My group members were incredibly friendly, and we all got along almost immediately. After the tour, we went to our rooms to change for sports.
