Legacies

Your will is the best way to provide for your friends and family, to help the causes you support and acknowledge the influences that have shaped your life.

Legacies have played, and continue to play, a major part in the history of Exeter College. As a charitable institution, bequests to Exeter are free of Inheritance Tax and really do make a difference to the lives of our members. Including a legacy in your Will, or adding a Codicil is a simple matter, although we do strongly advise that you take professional legal advice.

If you do choose to remember the College in your Will, we would be grateful if you could inform us by completing and returning a legacy pledge form so that we can ensure that all aspects of your plans are fully understood and so that we can thank you appropriately. This will not represent a binding commitment, and your plans will be treated in the strictest confidence.

For Old Members and Friends living in the United States, Exeter is part of a consortium with a number of Oxford colleges and with the US Bank, to facilitate methods of Planned Giving. Specialists in Planned Giving services will provide advice on ways to support Exeter while taking advantage of favourable federal and state tax laws.
