I’m satisfied with my experience in this institution so far. Before I moved here to study Law, I was worried about how the curriculum will be, and how much of my social life I will have to give up to survive the 2 year school programme, but tbh, since I got here, I found out there is really nothing to worry about. The school made a lot of provisions to satisfy every need, no part of your life has to suffer because of another. The academic part is a 100, provisions for your mental well being is in place. There are different societies for when you want to socialise, extremely efficient student union body, academic seminars to balance that up, the school helps you plan your future from the first week you move, discussions about career opportunities and how to achieve this. I particularly really like that I have a personal tutor who keeps up with things while not being too intrusive, checks up on even random things that shows genuine care. And the wifi connection is on point! Everytime! read more

The campus is located in a picturesque area and the university has recently build some new buildings. They look nice and have upgraded technology. Teaching quality that I experienced was honestly excellent. The small class setting was much better than the first university that I've attended where lectures could fill up to 200 people. I could actually learn in a smaller setting and had the opportunity to befriend lecturers. This is a great university for those who want to be able to focus on their studies and for those who want strong academic support. I honestly think the university should rank higher in many aspects. Social life is not going to be as great as other universities located in big cities. But I think student unions tried their best. With smaller student population, you could make really really good friends and meet many people. The student body is made up of 2/3 international students, I believe. It's great. Pre-Covid when I travelled I could visit my friends. read more

Loved the personal experience which was made possible by the staff : student ratio. Interacting with academics at the top of their filed in small group and on a one-to-one basis made for a rich academic experience. Always felt taken care of, and staff were keen to improve student experience based on feedback. Same goes for the SU — I managed to set up several societies during my time in Buckingham! read more
