Buckingham offers a unique university experience which I feel suits me perfectly. The town itself is small so naturally lacks the offerings of city based universities, but don't let this put you off! If you're looking for fun, you can find it anywhere. Oxford is close enough to be a good place for a night out and trains from Milton Keynes are cheap, making it possible to get to places like Birmingham and London even on a student budget. Being such a small uni, it feels more like a family. Faces of your fellow students will become familiar and they will quickly become life-long friends.
The two year degree courses are without doubt the biggest appeal of Buckingham. Naturally, this means working that bit harder for the time you're here, but the staff are incredibly accommodating and there is no shortage of support available for students. It really is a first class education and I would not hesitate to recommend this university.

I have enjoyed my first year here and meet some nice people and i think the university is an excellent place to study however I am terribly disspaointed that there are not hot babes. I know it may seem a bit irrelevant to the nature of study but I did hope for some more lovely eye candy.
