I loved how the university has a caring community feel to it, making it feel like a home away from home. You'd often see the same people around campus, making them familiar faces no matter what course they took or employment they had at the university. Everyone is always friendly and willing to assist when you are in need. The lecturers will always go above and beyond to ensure that your experience at university is as enjoyable as possible.

I applied to BNU by picking up the phone and calling their Clearing hotline number. Since having that initial phone call, it took 3 weeks to get started on my course, it was a quick process. I'm now looking forward to my second and third years.
