I've been a student at Bucks for almost three years now and it's been the best years of my life. The opportunities that I have been given since being a student here have been highly beneficial to my work and my studies. I have worked at a number of big name music companies such as Beggars Group and IQ Magazine and this has all been down to the support given by my lecturers and the student services here at Bucks. The Students' Union here is second to none and the Big Deal means that we have all our events, societies, events and recreational activities for free. We are the only University in the country that offers this to its students. Through the Big Deal, I have been able to see a number of top artists perform live, I have taken part in a number of workshops to enhance my CV and have joined the rowing team. The Big Deal means that all Students can have the opportunity to enhance themselves without effecting their bank account! I'm so sad to be leaving next year!

Canterbury City is surrounded by walls and the main gate that leads to the city from the look of it you can already tell that it is from the ancient times. It makes the city appear very interesting because of the old attractions. Canterbury being an old city and old cities in general makes you think that they have a particular tradition to follow. Whereas new cities on the other hand, you could think that they are guided by modern laws that people always want to break. If you think deeper about it, you would think that this means that the crime rate in old cities are less than in new cities which makes you as a citizen of the old town feel very safe.

Canterbury has the worlds most famous Cathedral attending one of their best universities now gives me the chance to not only be closer to the Cathedral but also have a chance to explore, understand and know it better. Cathedral today was shaped by various events that has happened in a single decade. Most infamous murder of decades, devastating fire, revolution of stone that saw to heaven that took a tour on earth. Canterbury is a medieval walled city and the old fashioned streets, its cathedral and ruins such as the St. Augustine’s Abbey and the Church of St. Martin form World Heritage site.

I chose university of Kent because of the very close distance from home. I am somebody that wouldn't want to miss out from the many great adventurous things that I may be experiencing but at the same time would like to take things slowly (walking speed). Kent to me seems like an average university. It is a campus university unlike for instance how some universities are in London where parts of the university are spread all over the city - this gives you a real insight of campus experience. The town is filled with many university students as there are quite a few universities in Canterbury. At the same time, you have people of all ages living there which helps you grow into a community independently with people of all kinds around you, one thing I love about the close distance from university to London is, whenever I feel lonely or upset I could easily book the next train or coach to go home and everything is back to normal.

Ever since I was little my parents and grandparents used to take me on holiday to Canterbury and tell me lots of interesting stories and showed me lots of beautiful attractions in Canterbury. Canterbury is a medieval walled city and the old fashioned streets, its cathedral and ruins such as the St. Augustine’s Abbey and the Church of St. Martin form World Heritage site. It is pedestrian-friendly and a great place to be when you would like to just spend some time on your own and focus on what matters to you. Also, it isn’t that far from home as I live in London = train is about 1hr 30mins and 45mins by coach to Bluewater which is just great – I can go home whenever I feel like or run out of food or just want to see my family again.

Beware of this College. Its simply a Visa school. The marketing officers main aim is money and don't pay attention to helping students genuinely. Worst College I have ever encountered in the United Kingdom. I wonder why it is even still in existence?

RE: BA Production course. Don't go here. It's oversubscribed - too many students needing to use too few studios and they are taking on more students. For £9,000 you get 20 teaching weeks - that's two 10 week terms. Thats it! Closed to HE students for the summer. You finish end of May. You're paying for 5 weeks off at Xmas and 5 weeks off at Easter. Website looks nice huh? The studios are not properly sound proofed and gear is constantly breaking down. There's practically no outboard gear. A few Drawmer Comps and Gates; some TC Multi effect units; there's four or so Audient 8024s. As an HE student you get access to two of them. But everyone wants access so you never get it. Oh, and you think you can get in during the holidays? Nah, they use the studios for assessments. The SSL desk is only available for 3rd years. You are expected to work in groups of half a dozen students that don't want to work together. You get two hours a week supposed tuition in a studio. You are a nuisance. He doesn't want to teach you. He will explain a bit then go off to do the register. Constantly checks his phone for outside work. You get musicianship three times a week with a whole load of students who don't read music. Then there's 'Working in the Creative Industries' - incredibly naff, generalised, teaching. You get a bit about copyright that you can get by reading the PRS website. We had some actress who had done a bit of music marketing! You get to watch the Dragons Den - like oooh, how insightful. Believe me, you will learn most of what you need to learn from Youtube. You get marked for self reflective journals and incredibly subjective pointless essay questions and teachers who grind through the same Powerpoint slides year in year out.

The uni has probably the best marketing department in the UK... but the reality looks different! Super old building where the lectures take place, slow computers, partly unmotivated staff and some creepy drug-consuming people on campus. However, some of the lectures were good and mostly the people are friendly. Also, modern student accomodation and good location to city center.

London School of Commerce (LSC) is a fantastic value for money university. The degree is awarded by Cardiff Metropolitan University, which is a top 100 UK university. I'm shocked that there are a couple of negative reviews on here, as my experience was completely different, and so was that of my friends. Perhaps it is because the thousands of satisfied graduates from LSC are less inclined to comment. The lecturers are all highly experienced professionals, and know their subject impeccably. The facilities are in the centre of London at London Bridge, and the library is well stocked. The staff are incredibly friendly, right from the receptionists through the admissions staff, to the teaching faculty. There are clubs, despite a few suggesting otherwise, including the football team (which I was involved in) and the debating society. I know the cricket team are regional BUCS champions. This was well publicised. As for my career prospects having completed an MBA at LSC, they have improved markedly, and I'm now in Marketing Management. And this was the lowest cost degree that I could find. So all in all, I strongly recommend LSC as a fantastic learning destination.

The Business School is awful with no support.
