'Prospective' - so you haven't actually applied this year?

Hi there,

I'd recommend searching for these universities on UniBuddy or through their websites, and using the 'Chat to a Student' feature. This can be super helpful for asking a current student specific questions about their experiences studying there, and would likely be very insightful for you.

As an example, I've linked the page for Bournemouth University here.

I hope this helps,

Hi @Jhgk07,

It's great to hear you are thinking about your university journey.
I'm Q, a 4th Year Media Production student at Bournemouth University (BU).

Bournemouth is a great university if you want something that is a mix of fast paced, but also calm and quiet. If you want to get stuck in, there a lots of Clubs & Societies through the university, as well as things to do in the local area such as the cinema, crazy golf and more. If you'd prefer something more quiet, there are various university groups and societies that you can attend such as Faith & Reflection.

As a student at BU, there are tonnes of places on campus to work in groups and independently, as well as many food outlets in the various buildings across campus. As a Law student, you would be based at the Talbot Campus, and whilst some people like the smaller campus that you can easily walk across in less than 5 minutes, it isn't the feel that some people want, so it is really up to what you prefer.

I'd recommend coming to Bournemouth for one of our open days, and you can find them listed on this page here: Open Days.

I hope this helps - let me know if you have any more questions.
