I was not intending to study at Birmingham city university, however was the best decision I have made so far. The staff are very helpful especially the student representatives. I enjoy coming to the university as it's has a very friendly atmosphere. Recently I was struggling with a assignment and the university has a department to help you with essay writing, referencing and just general grammar and spelling checks.
