FAQ 2714
How do I raise a complaint?

We make every effort to ensure that you have the best experience

possible while studying at Exeter. However, we recognise that there may

be occasions where you are dissatisfied with some aspect of your

experience at the University.

The Student Complaints procedure is designed to cover the following types of complaint:

  • a failing in a University service, academic or non-academic
  • misinformation about academic programmes
  • poor teaching or supervision
  • insufficient facilities

If you are unhappy with your experience or with the service you have

received you are encouraged to first talk directly with the person

responsible.

If you wish to make a formal complaint full details of the Student

Complaints procedure can be found by clicking on the following link:

Student Complaints Procedure

Please remember that a complaint should be submitted as soon as

possible after a problem occurs and in any event must be whilst you are a

current student or within 30 days of ceasing to be registered with the

University. If you are a postgraduate research student, you may use the

procedure for up to 30 calendar days after you have been notified of

your final award of your withdrawal. We recommend that you draft your

complaint, including your preferred resolution and sent it to us at advice@exeterguild.com.

We can assist you by explaining how the complaints process works and

what you need to do. We will read over documents and may accompany you

to meetings. However, we cannot represent you or write documents for

you.
