I believe BNU is the best place to study because of the student support provided here. They’re amazing with helping students out whether it be financially, academically, socially or mentally. They’re also really good at providing a lot of events for students to attend all throughout the week. I’d say my least favourite thing would probably be the accommodation. They’re not too bad but there could be improvement with the facilities.
Staff are really friendly and are very encouraging of how they would love to help more and always there to offer a hand to you with anything. Never feel lost with anything always well communicated of who to go for for help. Creative Ad is a great course lectures are 11/10
Student support needs a bit more working on

Even though most of my lessons aren’t at the uni, I really think it is a great place. Especially the library for resources and just having a place to concentrate. I think the only thing that can be improved is more support on the course I’m doing, all the exams are so close together and it’s very overwhelming for that to be happening this early on in the year.
Good thing about this uni is that facilities are clean and spacious. Worst thing is the uni is not organised in general. Which can cause confusion to students
New atrium needs sound proofing. It's too loud in there. Societies are great
focus more on improving the courses than what else you can add to the campus physically. even though the new atrium and food places are nice, there are other ways to spend resources to make the uni better for the students. for example, one of the dance studios needs redoing but that isn’t a priority since all the new building work started.
The locations is very nice with a lot of great facilities. The staff and lecturers are all very warm and nice. The timetabling can be problematic at times but for the most part it's good.
New facilities are really warm and welcoming and have a good environment in which to study in. Timetabling can be a bit of an issue for those who are commuting. However all lectures are delivered at a high standard.
This university campus is a great way of living the student life and having an academic challenge
Not only is the student support is great the lectures are also very informative and lecturers are friendly and makes the lessons more engaging and fun
The best part is the support that I’ve got from uni. Last year I was on ODP course and my health condition got worse. I was struggling from the pain, effects of the medications and the shame of giving up the course. However, the lecturers, course leader, support service and counselling service helped me through the difficult period. I’ve had several meetings with my personal tutor to talk about my feelings, fears and opportunities. If the uni is not supportive enough I would give up studying , give up on myself. Moreover, the course leader knew my future plan, which is more health prevention than pain management. He helped me to make the decision to swap courses instead given up. He also arranged a meeting with the Public Health course leader . After I made the decision to leave the ODP course he sent a recommendation to the other course leader. I never felt that way before. My voice was heard, my situation was taken seriously and I’ve been offered many opportunities. I’m happy with the decision that I made and I wouldn’t study in another institution. This uni is absolutely focused on the students. The worst part was when we had only one microwave in the canteen and I had to wait 20 minutes to warm up my meal because of the queue. After talking with SU it’s sorted out should. I highly recommend the Bucks Uni because they are the best. The lecturers, the services and facilities are amazing.
This is the best place to study especially the library is great here with 24/7 access
The best aspect of Bucks Uni is their student support and experience. One week will not go by without a fun event or extra learning opportunities or many many more.
the best aspects for me are my course as its fully prepared me for the real industry of advertising. and the worst is high wycombe, as besides the university there isnt really much there to do, but luckily we arent too far from london so i just go into central when i want a more exciting city.
It has been a great experience so far

The lecturers for the midwifery course are absolutely brilliant. They are all very supportive, encouraging and very personable. The blended learning is brilliant for students with children / limited childcare options. The simulation labs have high quality equipment that is maintained and looked after. The only area I would consider needed improvement is the canteen areas in uxbridge and aylesbury as they don't compare to the facilities at the high wycombe campus.
It been a wonderful experience so far, and I am able to access the support I needed at all times. The worst aspect is the travelling, uni is too far from home
