Buckingham Chilterns University College in general Reviews

Newest Review: ... slightly more difficult to make the lectures interactive and fun. ~~~~~~~~~ The University ~~~~~~~~~ As I said, Bucks New Uni is located in High Wycombe, however I didn't mention that there is also a campus in Uxbridge. The Uxbridge campus is only for people who are doing a nursing course, so if you choose to study anything else at BNU then you will be in High Wycombe. Most of the University got rebuilt just before I became a student there, so half of it is quite old and a little shabby, and the other half is new and modern. The new part has a library which covers four floors, hundreds of new computers, and editing suites. There are ... more

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bucks New University ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ First of all, this University is now called Buckinghamshire New University, which it changed its name to a few years ago. In this review I will be referring to it with its current name rather than the name it is under on Dooyoo. Buckinghamshire New University (BNU) is located in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, and is a 30-40 minute train ride away from the city of London. I became a student at Bucks New Uni in September 2009 and have nearly completed two years of my three year course there. When I made the decision to go to University, I knew I wanted to go to one that was in ... Read the complete review

Buckinghamshire Chilterns University College, now called Bucks New University, was the Uni I attended and obtained my Degree. I felt that this Uni was for me as it was not a big posh building like some of the others I had seen, and actually felt more like my 6th form college rather than a scary University. I felt that the lecturers I had at Uni played a big part in the way in which I learned. If my lecturer put in the time and effort into lectures, then it made me feel more inclined to study and learn more about the subjects I was being taught. Many parts of Bucks New University have now been re-built, so that a better learning environment can be ... Read the complete review

If your thinking of going to university, dont chose this one. I stayed at the Chalfont Campus, which is slap bang in the middle...of no where. Meaning if you need to go shopping, or anywhere for that matter, you either need to drive, befriend someone who drives, steal a car, or really on the dodgy campus bus service, which stops at 8pm. Taxi's are ok but they cost a fortune. the nearest city to go out in (thats any good) is Watford, and the train station is about 6 miles away. On campus you should make sure u stay in St.Giles and not St.Peters. St.Giles are the newer buildings some have en suite rooms and they are all funky and modern and clean. St.Peters ...

Newlands is the best campus out of the three with to bars and a club on site, but the other two are well worth a look at. Has all u need on site Gym, swimming pool three footy pitch's and places to eat, Just has a good feeling around the place and is now in the top 16 uni's for Business art and law. The BCUC student support is also very good so if u eva have any problems, which u also do, they will be sorted out very fast. eg swopping rooms. ... Read the complete review

The place isn't so bad, although it is far from good. The main campus isn't too bad- the union is open every night, although it can cost up to £3 to get into. I'm at the Wellesbourne campus, which is a mission to get to if you don't have a car, which you are unlikely to have if you live in halls as you can get chucked out for having one there. Wellesbourne is quite a bit away from the halls up a big hill, so you have to get the bus, which isn't too bad in the mornings, but during the day it has a habit of being late or not showing at all. The halls aren't too bad, so long as you're at Brook Street-anyone who stays at John North is ... Read the complete review
