BCU is a great place to study, with lots of opportunities to help shape your future. There are plenty of study spaces, and the 24-hour library is an absolute lifesaver during busy times. They also have tons of tools to help improve your assignments, and any issues are usually sorted out pretty quickly. The only downside is the WiFi and phone service—it can be pretty bad across some campuses, which can be frustrating. But overall, the uni offers a solid experience with lots of support to help you succeed. read more

My experience at BCU has been very good so far, although it is hard for me to give a valid review of the university as my course (Stage Management) mostly does not take place on the main campus and those on the course do not interact much with people outside of it. Nevertheless, the Stage Management course itself is very practical and well constructed, and the facilities for it are great, if a little too far spread out over the city. read more
