Satisfied with everything so far
It is my first year of uni. I have to say that support I have been given was amazing. I am currently battling with new diagnoses of chronic illness and even before the start of academic year, uni was on top of it making sure I am okay and checking if there is anything they need to do. I was not expecting to be looked after in the way before uni started. I like the balance of lecturer and independent study. We have great opportunities for social life due to BIG DEAL and also some volunteering activities.
The Union offers a huge variety of activities and support that is completely free! This makes the cost of living a lot easier and means there is always an event to look forward to during the week. Not to mention that all of the societies are free, so there is no stopping you from joining and becoming active. The staff at BNU are all so lovely and helpful, my tutors really care about me and try their best to make sure I get the most out of my studying. Moreover, my course in particular has a keen focus on industry experience so every 2 weeks I get to go and actually work in a hotel. This is honestly amazing, I recommend BNU and my course to everyone I come across! It deserves so much recognition for the work it does and the way it cares for its students.
The Alysbury campus could do with a better selection of food so is the worst aspect. The staff are lovely The best aspect is the availability of staff to be on hand to help
the best aspect of the university is the support that they give to students
