I mean, where else would I rather be?

(5)·By Rebecca B·Accounting· Jun 2025
With all honesty, Buckinghamshire New University has been a complete blessing—from the aesthetics to the student-focused goals and the endless support and opportunities. I mean, genuinely, where else would you rather be? I'm so privileged to be able to attend a university like this, and I've genuinely built real-life bonds with my teachers. This is more than just education; this is family.

Hi I am loving my uni life as it has given me more independence and responsibilities. I had many different experiences and opportunities that has made me become a better person. I have made many friends that I like to hang out with and go out with whether it is to going out to do a food shop or a night out. My accommodation is lovely I have lovely flat mates.

University with right academic and practice support

(5)·By Marilia M·Nursing· Jun 2023
Bucks New University gives nurses students full support during lectures and placements. We have a great team of professionals who are always available to help. Preparation is high standard, quality of lessons is very good and there is a hospital scenario where we can practice whatever we covered in the week. Allowing student to apply understanding. I was afraid I wasn't going to cope before starting the course. Now I feel relieved I have choose this university. Even though all the difficulties in the way - such as living far away - I feel capable and happilly determined to continue with my studies at Bucks New University.

Nursing, Year 2

(5)·By Jasmine A·Nursing· Jul 2021
Amazing, I lived in halls and spent two weeks out in the SU. Everyone was so friendly, security were top notch and the SSHH (silent students happy homes) bus keeps everyone safe. Really good, security are helpful when you lock yourself out! Accomodation team are speedy at solving problems too. Library is open 24/7 and has so much space. Classrooms are tidy and organised, and there's a gym onsite. The SU is amazing at supporting their students. The lecturers know what they're talking about, and have experience in the field. They support 1-1 and do all they can to help you get the grade. Really good, plenty of pubs around and they do deals like £1 drinks on Tuesdays! Security are hot on it, and the PSCOs are there too.

It was great and amazing to get involved to meet new people I never lived at the accomodation but hearing from friends it was a lovely stay Easily accessible Everythg the lectures, library, staff and even the security people were friendly in times of forgetting Id they would let us as they knew some of our faces regularly which was kind of them otherwise we would miss our lesson. City life has been great to me

University was the time of my life were I found myself as a person and as a human being. I learnt about talents I didn't even know I had, I learnt how to become a better person socially aswel as mentally. It's amazing how 3 years can shape a person life experiences and develop them for the rest of there life. University will always be the place we're I learnt to love myself and never doubt my decisions because doubting yourself means stopping yourself from excelling.

Film, Year 1

(5)·By Shaye S·Film· Oct 2018
I've thoroughly enjoyed my experience so far. All the lecturers are knowledgable and easy to approach. They are willing to help you out, and the same goes for the student centre and support staff. All of the equipment is up to date, and the classrooms are clean and modern. The students are friendly and always willing to help out the Year 1s. All the events at the student union are free to attend and the money you spend there goes straight back into the student union and isn't profiting the university. I love it at Bucks New Uni and would recommend it to anyone.

It was so much fun! The student union do lots of events and activities you can participate in. I lived at home but stayed over in halls quite often. Uni accommodation is great for socialising too. Library is huge and you can request any books, magazines... you want. The studio I worked in was a dream, very spacious and colourful, perfect for a creative course (one of the reasons I chose this uni was the ambience). The students union has lots of extra activities going on (another reason why I picked Bucks since I'm an avid climber) including any sports you can imagine, clubs, weekly events... It's an open minded space and your ideas don't get rejected but more like discussed and improved. They don't shut down your creativity and it's a very organic atmosphere. There's lots of shops and it's all in walking distance. I did spent most of my student life at uni or spoons (which is right next to uni
