Bournemouth University Official Q&A

Hi, I have a conditional offer to study MA Radio Production. I got my undergraduate degree results a week ago and uploaded them to my application, I also emailed the admissions team to let them know and they said they'd be in touch soon. Does anyone have any idea how long it will take for my place to be confirmed? I'm a bit anxious because I want to be able to start the accommodation process and I can't do that until my status changes to Unconditional Firm. Thanks!

Does anyone know when we're going to get sent info about payment for accommodation? Or has anyone gotten it yet? I got an email from Unilet a week ago saying they'd send me the info during the week but I haven't gotten anything so far.

Hi Sarah,

Congratulations on getting your undergrad results! I'm sure they're on the case, but if you're worried then it might be worth getting in contact with askBU.

Hope that helps!
Katie

Thanks for the reply. I was informed that my results haven't been received, so it seems they're not showing up on my application.

Hey
Im an AS student going to A2 thinking of doing the creative events management course at AUB? To anyone who may do it, what are the hardest elements? And how can i make my application stand out?

Hi, I'm a year 12 student waiting for my AS results and I have my heart set on Bournemouth uni. I would like to study a business management related course- possibly a marketing course.

First of all, what's the difference between business management with marketing course and a marketing communications course.

Secondly, what can increase the chances of me getting into the uni. So what does BU look for in their candidates in particular. I have probably left it a bit late to find work experience this summer but can you think of any type of work experience j should look into?

Thanks

Hi,I got into the university through clearing so I was wondering what shops are close by to the uni and what the night life is like?

Hey, I got into Bournemouth on an Accounting and Business course however I don't want to do business I would rather do Accounting and Finance. Is it a big deal to change ? I know the first year is pretty much identical for both courses.
Also is Accounting and finance solely based at the Business School at landsdown. I ask because to get to Talbot would take between 1hr and 1hr 30mins which is a killer commute.

Hey, well done on getting into BU through clearing. My names Dom and I'm going into my final year of Marketing Communications.

Bournemouth is really easy to get around and there are loads of shops down in the town centre which is a 10 min bus journey from Talbot Campus. Lansdowne Campus is walking distance and that's where halls of residence are also.

There are loads of shops in the town centre: Topshop, River Island, Zara, (most of the high-street shops). Then there's most of the popular fast food chains and lots of new restaurants like 7bone, burger shop, steak & lobster and loads of Chinese, Indians, even African and Japanese.

Now the night life. Bournemouth ALWAYS has something going on at night for students. With clubs constantly being refurbed and new events launching. We also have an O2 academy down in Boscombe which is only a taxi journey away (walk home is definitely an option to save money). I won't give too much away, but I promise you that you won't be disappointed!

Enjoy freshers, but honestly make sure you get to all of the welcome lectures ect. I know it's a cliche, but work hard play hard and you'll have the best time.

Cheers and enjoy Uni life,
Dom
