BPP University

Not applicable - home study Not applicable - home study / distance learning A lot to offer, plenty of space to learn which felt safe, sociable and a lot of access to learning aids Technology used well to aid online lectures which were interactive Busy but also good to be in the hustle and bustle of things. Good to be surrounded by professionals and courts which you could visit

the teachers make the lectures and seminars as fun and interesting as they can, also taking into account each indivudal separately and their problems, the whole uni experience is good as everyone is your friend and even the staff are always so welcoming, i get the help i need, i have achieved better than i thought i could and i have been assured if i put the work in i will leave with a 2:1 or higher, the uni makes sure you are doing well and gives you alot of work experience and jobs to make your CV stand out to law firms, gurantees everyone a training contract to either become a solicitor or barrister,

A very professional university with friendly and efficient staff. The facilities are modern and comfortable. As it is a small university, there are not many opportunities for social activities - but those that are provided are well established and fun.

Welcoming and willing to go that extra mile to provide you with satisfaction- whether it be through studies, career option help or just finding different ways to make your year better than the last!

It was interesting.I made new friends BPP does not have have its own accommodation so we have to rent private accommodation The lecture areas are fantastic and the library is spacious too The lecturers are patient and very experienced in delivering the course Nice to get to try new food and hang out with new friends

The teaching at bpp has been fantastic. The tutors are interactive and well prepared and I always feel I can ask questions. The resources produced are very useful and the facilities are great too. However, the admin and general organisation at bpp let the university down. I was not given my books until 4 weeks into the course and I have frequently encountered admin issues. Furthermore, it would be nice if bpp had more societies and social events to get involved with.

I have grown a lot at my university and learnt many valuable skills. The university has very effective teaching methods and the teachers seem experienced.

The student advice service needs massive improvements, as most of the advisers are unfriendly, arrogant and lazy. It almost seems as if they make fun of student issues, especially of international students there. Most of the departments don't have a landline, so you have to send an email, knowing that they won't get back to you. The visa team is the worst, as they don't help you out if you have problems with your visa and are so cold towards you when it comes to paying the tuition fees. I suppose this is what you get when you come to a private university that is only interested in money.

I studied 6 extra modules compared to other state universities; it was too much, because we learned three modules a semester, then there was a three week break and then exams - ALL of the exams were in a 2 week period. A lot of people had 2 exams in 1 day, while students at other universities have at least a week between exams; we were lucky if we got an hour! Exam period was way too stressful for most of us, so I think it's definitely something that needs to be sorted. Don't come here if you want a decent social life, as most students come here for the reputation that BPP has in the legal and business industry, meaning that people come here purely to get their heads down and study a lot. I found it really difficult to try and organise any kind of social event, people are more interested in competing with each other for training contracts. My teachers varied, as a couple of them were brilliant, but the others weren't so good and would just repeat themselves if you went to them saying that you hadn't understood something. It was difficult to get a response out of them too, as we could only get them via email and they rarely replied. The pastoral care is non-existent! There is one member of staff for the whole of the third year and she's rude and barely evn around. BPP is still fairly new and I think they are still learning a lot from other unis. It's probably not the best place for undergraduate study, but I'd definitely do a postgrad here.
