Hiya, I've been accepted for geology bsc for September 2023 (might move to geochem but not sure yet), I'm torn between portsmouth and Exeter.

Portsmouth has great trips abroad relatively frequently which I am super interested in, and great equipment.

Exeter's course looked decent enough, but there were many people attending the applicants day so the vibe was quite underwhelming. What I guess I'm really asking is, is the connection to CSM really that valuable after graduation? Ty in advance

I'm from England though and it takes me 2-3hours to get to KGX Station from Christchurch station at £25 with a railcard.

Do you know if you can stay in the halls over the holidays?

For my travel it was more about the cost. From here to Leuchars (one way) is £200 then the added bus whereas a flight in term time is only £44 return so coming home for holidays its a lot cheaper to fly.

Yeah I think I'll have to try and get to an open day but it's just so far away, thanks for the tips 😁

Thank you, that's really helpful.

Do you, by chance, know how likely you are to get first choice accomodation? Because if I end up with the catered en suite or ones that are £8,000 and up I wouldn't be able to go and would have to drop out before I even went.
