Cost of Living Hub
The cost of living crisis is a worrying prospect for everyone, but we're particularly concerned about how it will impact many of you as students and learners. With the rising costs of bills, food and transport, it is an increasingly difficult time to be a student. In this Cost of Living Hub, we've pulled together all of the support currently on offer to you as a student at BNU. We'll continue to review our measures and this page to ensure that we're doing all we can to support you.
BNU allows you to do a degree with lecturers who are willing to go the extra mile for their students. It offers free sports clubs and societies where you can meet new friends and learn new skills. It prepares you for your career and it鈥檚 a university where you really feel part of a family. It鈥檚 been the best part of my life and I would go back and do it all over again.Sophie Parfitt Police Studies Graduate

BNU for me is not just a university, I have personally developed as a person, opened my mind and experienced so many new things. I'm glad I found a course I really love with teachers who inspire me and care about my progress. I also have the opportunity through university to find new hobbies and socialise with new people.Kotsi Mariaeleni
