Dont apply for this university, waste of money and time. Only one lecturer (a lady) made an effort others were not worth it. They only cared to get the fees. After the course they just inform home office that we did stop studying instead completed the studies and did not want to do anything to correct it. read more

As a very mature student my expectations were low both academically and socially. How wrong I was! I have made some amazing friends of all ages, from diverse cultures and thanks to the excellent tutors I've exceeded my academic expectations. Choosing to study for an undergraduate degree at Bolton University was the best decision I ever made. read more

Covid made it hard to get the most of my uni experience but it was a good place. Most of my issues are course and lecturer related instead of the campus and the student support available. read more
