Student Rhyne Chambers Modern Languages, French and Spanish BA (Hons) I like the fact the Surrey allows you to have a 50/50 split between your two languages choices, as that was something other universities didn’t offer. I also like that students are given a choice of subject for written assignments.
Student Alice Brooks Modern Languages (French and Spanish) BA (Hons) We have access to a huge range of books and materials, computers with specialised software for language learners, and staff on hand during the weekdays to provide support. The classrooms also boast features to support listening practice.

Student Elliot Orsborn Business Management and Spanish BSc (Hons) I love being part of two Schools at Surrey as I get to meet a wider variety of students and professors. On a standard working day, I can be in classes of 20 or 200 people.

Student Jess Bond Modern Languages (French and German) BA (Hons) The course focuses less on literature and more on immersing yourself in the culture and language itself, teaching the lessons you need for the real world of work.
Graduate Aslan Maton English Literature BA (Hons) I got to try so many amazing things and explore my passions! In my final year, some of my assignments included working on a graphic novel, a video game demo, and an essay on my favourite anime.
