the teachers are really supportive
Best aspects is the disability & mental health support, the quality of lectures and the staff teaching them! One of the worst aspects is that is that if you live out of uni or aren’t based at the main campus in high Wycombe then for the social aspect can be a bit lonely,

The student union offers free activities to all of the students, like day trips out or a ticket to a west end show. There is a wonderful sense of community and the staff have always been really supportive and approachable. The Uxbridge and Aylesbury campuses could have a few more events or activities taking place there, as all of the events seem to mainly come out of the Wycombe campus.
Facilities are amazing and it’s a real feel at home space the lecturers are incredible and very clear and precise. Only thing I would change is to be able to use cash in the canteens etc and maybe a travel pass as it’s very expensive to travel there and back on a weekly basis.
Yeah it’s good but improvements still in moments of doubt peace and accessibility

There's really good facilities for the music students. The only fault with them is that there's a difficult system to booking studios or rehearsal rooms as they are high demand for a lot of people. The location is really good. I like being close to both a train station and bus station. Even though I live a bit further on the outside of town it's still relatively quick to walk. Student support has been amazing. I have a learning disability and stuggle with various mental illnesses, it was quick and easy to sign up to mental health support here at bucks and I was able to get accomodations in place too. I love the campus, but I could be biased as I'm a transfer student and my old uni didn't have the best facilities. In comparison, it's really easy to study here. The building temperature is well regulated, the design is easy to navigate, and the school is always improving too with adding new additions. I feel really proud when I get to show people around the uni. I can't rate highly on student life as I haven't experienced much of it. I haven't been able to make friends here yet so it's difficult to go to events alone. However, I'm always intrigued to see whats happening and the uni hold some really interesting events. I can't rate too highly on students union either as I haven't experienced too much of it. What I have experienced and what I have heard, there's always some drama or rumours between staff or staff not being the friendliest sometimes behind the scenes.
Easy to travel to University The campus is within walking distance to shops The lecturers are very knowledgeable and experienced There is not a student bar my campus
I think the uni is amazing and all staff and student helpers are really lovely
The community is a generally friendly and welcoming one. I feel like I can trust the people I meet there even if I may not always see them outside of study times.
Good, but not great at facilitating people with jobs during the week and those of us that commute in from home, ie a random morning 2 hour lecture does not help with work...
Difficult to review as I am learning from home but, due to what I've seen online and how the course is running, I am very pleased I am studying with this university.
Excellent Student Experience, Supportive Guidance, resources and fell part of the Community. With great energy to keep forced for Future Career.
Best aspects: cheap food, nice library. Worst aspect: the stress of being in a new environment.
Great team
It's very easy to access from home, and has that perfect balance of me feeling like I'm living independently while still feeling close to home. The facilities here are great as well, and staff are very kind and supportive of any problems encountered. I might still ask for help with connecting to the WiFi network, though, as my computer seems to be having problems connecting.
All staff friendly and accommodating and make you welcome

The campus is specifically for nursing students which is a great way to gain experience and for the overall learning experience. The university could improve by encouraging more social activity with the students, especially for those in first year and providing students with parking on site.
I would like if there was more one to one interaction with tutors and bigger facilities especially with simulation suites and practical sessions.
