Buckinghamshire New University - Bucks New Uni (reviews)

Helpful staff, the support is amazing, the lectures are very helpful and no pressure, the university has lovely facilities. The library is fantastic as it is conveniently 24 hours.
During difficult time there is a lot of support you can get and it is very confidential.

I loved that they helped students alot when it came to understanding modules and preparing for upcoming exams. They were very ensuring that we had out personal tutors to help us along the way. However, when Covid hit and we were sent out on Placements they were many struggles and lack of communication from the Uni. I would recommend the Uni

During my time at Bucks New University, I found the university building itself to be very clean, modern and well organised. Equipment and simulation rooms were always clean and fully functioning. Staff were always friendly, welcoming and supportive. Due to illness, I had to take a gap year from university but the staff were so helpful in getting me back on track and supporting me in my return to university and placement. The library always had computers available to use and there was an excellent range of books available to borrow. I feel I learnt so much during my years here and would recommend it to students thinking of studying here. Lectures were delivered excellently and the workload was always kept manageable by allowing students to complete all assignments before going on placement, meaning they never had to juggle both simultaneously. The only thing that I would say could be improved within the university is the means of contacting lecturers from home. Often it was difficult to get hold of them and emails would take a while to get a response. Since I lived two hours away from university it wasn’t also an option to drive there just to speak to a lecturer. Overall, the university is excellent and I would definitely consider returning if I was to ever choose to do another degree.

My thesis period fell between the Covid-19 lockdown era and gathering information became really problematic. The supervisor assigned to me was very helpful and cooperative throughout the course. He was responsive, always available, guided on every step and make the thesis fun to work on. I would recommend BNU to every friend of mine.
