Oooh well done :smile: I’m still waiting to hear back off a couple before I can firm my choice ! Are you commuting or staying on campus ?
Staying on campus, however I have not seen any of the accommodation in person but I have viewed them all online, how about you?

Hoping to stay on campus aswell , I’ve not seen any of the accommodation in person however I’ve had a look online and I’m not too keen on the accommodation available at the south campus ! Belgrave view doesn’t look too bad will probably apply for that as the others are quite a bit away !
The others are pretty far which is a shame as they do look very nice! However, I don’t mind a walk and if I can be near town then I can do more shopping 😂😝!! Well best of luck with your other interviews!

It wasn’t too bad tbh, I think I overthought it when I heard we had to respond to service users on the iPads but once I was in there and they explained it to me it was quite straight forward ! You’ll be fine ! Good luck

Ah hey guys, I'm 18, from Shoreditch, and I'm in my last year at college. I've been offered 5 choices, two of my favorite ones are coincidentally BCU and UWE Bristol! I assume that's your 'Bristol' choice Hayden? I haven't actually seen the south BCU seacole building yet, but I have seen UWE, and I really like it! I'm still torn haha. What was your 'back up' option or whatever they call it? Like, don't you get a main choice and then an alternative?? Obviously haven't accepted any offers yet lol x
UWE Bristol has been put as my back up option on UCAS and BCU my first! You get too choose which one will be your first and second choice! I loved UWE campus but it was a little old and dated compared to the BCU campus. I just fell in love with BCU, honesty amazing and there facitlitlys are incredible! X

Yeah the Seacole building at BCU South looks amaze ! I loved UWE too, but yeah, some parts of it are quite dated - saying that though, they are doing loads of modernisation work and they do have brilliant facilities !! Especially the accommodation. I think I'm torn between BCU and UWE because they're both good uni's, both very accessible, good rankings... I had better hurry up and decide though! I'm going to the UWE applicant day next month, it'll probably be packed with hundreds of people but at least I can get a second chance to decide haha! It's also the city too...Birmingham or Bris? I'm going BCU next weekend for a look around! BCU and UWE are only like an hour away from each other, so regardless of where I go it won't differ too much! I think I'm swaying more towards BCU but idk haha!

Thankyou for the advice though. What were your other options if you don't mind me asking? I applied for Greenwich (closer to where I live), Manchester met, Bournemouth, UWE Bristol and BCU. I've spoke to several people in the South West and most seem to have gone for Plymouth, Cardiff, Bristol UWE, Bournemouth (I think?), and places like BCU, Manchester, etc...
I applied too Plymouth, Bournemouth, Bristol and Birmingham. I got offers for all except Bournemouth as I confirmed BCU as soon a I got it!!

Ah cool, that sounds great - well done :smile:. I'm going to the BCU open day on the 24th March and the UWE applicant day next month! My cousin's studying Architecture at UWE so I'll meet him there for some guidance haha - will you be going to any of those days too? If so, I'll see you there ! :biggrin: X

Hi everyone,

I had my interview day there this past week... just waiting on my offer, I really like it there and I’m happy I’ve managed to find a group of people who are thinking about staying at the accommodation bc at my interview, lots of people were local and I was worried about being the only nursing student in accommodation :/ How far is everyone coming from if you are attending BCU?

Im also thinking of choosing the Belgrave View accommodation if I go there just because I didn’t like the quality of the City South accommodation...

Im finding it hard to chose between my offers... so lots of thinking to do!

Good luck everyone!!
