Why Somerset College?

Choosing a college and a course of study are two of the biggest life decisions you will have to make.

It is important to make sure that you choose the best place to study, the right course, the most comfortable living environment and a student community that is right for you.

Sandwiched between Exeter and Bristol, the appeal of Somerset College is that we provide a less stressful but equally focused student experience to that found in any city university or college. We are told time and time again that this is a place our students really appreciate.

At some larger colleges or universities, it can take time before you feel comfortable and settled. At Somerset College you'll feel at home much more quickly. We pride ourselves on the close-knit, welcoming and tolerant student community we have here. The people you meet here are likely to become lifelong friends.

In such an encouraging atmosphere it is easy to be yourself and be somebody. We will help support you in everyway we can so that you can be the best in whatever career you decide on.

Our class sizes are relatively small and the way we work means you will have lots of contact with your tutors. They are keen to take time to find out about you and what you want to achieve and are happy to work closely with you to make sure you succeed.
