Bournemouth University

Easy move in process, great team helping every step of the way. Flats were better than expected. Everyone in our halls was amazing, Purbeck house was the best it could have been. Easy to meet new people between all of the halls across the town as they are so close. Also the 2 week freshers is definitely a must, not the 1 week everywhere else. Tips for students, don’t hold back, knock on all the rooms and flats for the first couple of weeks. Meet everyone you can and enjoy the first couple of weeks. You can easily keep on top of uni and going out in the first year so make the most of the time and money you have before second and third year!

It was great. I went to cameo in Bournemouth and it was zoo themed I went completley over the top and was a bright neon pink flamingo. However when I got to the club I realised that nobody had dressed up anywhere near to the extent I had. Then I had to spend the whole night dancing looking like a bright pink crayon.

Feel like freshers week in general was organised quite poorly. Many people i came across had wristbands to events they didn’t want to go too and there were tons of events going on but no where to view all the events going on because they weren’t all through BU.

Absolutely unforgettable (not very memorable - for good reasons) 2 weeks! Linger than usual uni freshers weeks but filled with events every day of the two weeks including a garden party (festival) and good deals on tickets and wristbands for all events.

The city freshers events (halo, cameo etc) is much better than the SUBU events! Would recommend getting the city fresher wristband and purchasing individual SUBU fresher events if needed!

Most of the club's were very nice however prices were higher than back home and didn't play the music I liked most of the tine.

Every thing was good, people were fun, lots of girls, lots of drinks and lots of blurry nights.... a very very good week

Freshers week was incredible. The people I met were amazing and I am still good friends with most 3 years later. The event were very fun, particularly the club and pub night's. The freshers fair was also great as I got lots of freebies! I always participate in freshers events even in my second and final year as they are always fun and worth going to.
