The accommodation at Exeter College is student accommodation – it is therefore simple but comfortable. Rooms are simply furnished, and towels and toiletries are provided as well as tea and coffee making facilities. All standard rooms have their own washbasin and there is a limited number of ensuite rooms available. Exeter College is a medieval building and there are no lifts to the higher floors.

You may choose to stay in Cohen Quad, which is just a short walk away (10-15 minutes). There are lifts to all floors. All rooms are ensuite and contain a refrigerator. With beautiful architecture and plenty of open plan pleasant seating areas, this is ideal if you are requiring something with a few more facilities.

No, you are welcome to make your own arrangements to stay elsewhere. Simply enrol using the non-residential option. However, delegates generally choose to stay at Exeter College because of the camaraderie and sense of community gained from living in such beautiful surroundings together.

Yes, you can attend Summer School as a Day Delegate for the whole day or half days from Monday to Friday.

For the Weekend courses and the 5-Day Astrology in Action course, where no written work is required, a reasonable standard in both reading and speaking English is advised, in order to understand the lectures and interact with other delegates.

If you wish to study one of the Faculty Modules at Summer School (Module 3 or Module 9), then you will need a good standard of written and spoken English to be able to take the course. If you are unsure of this you can check your language on the following university access website: http://www.open.ac.uk/courses/do-it/english-skills.

Not at all! We have delegates at all stages of learning, from complete beginners to the professional astrologer. It is the love and fascination for astrology that brings us all together!
