It’s been another busy week for the askBU team. You’ve been asking all sorts of questions, from asking about our Open Days to finding out about scholarships. Here are some answers to your top questions…<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

    \n
  1. I\u2019m interested in studying a foundation course at BU, can you help?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    We offer a range of foundation degrees, many of which are delivered through our partner colleges<\/a>. Even if you don\u2019t study at a BU campus for your degree, your final award will still be from BU.\u00a0 Please click here<\/a> for more information.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    2. I\u2019m interested in studying either your Film Production & Cinematography or Photography course, where would my studies be based?<\/strong><\/p>\n

    These courses are delivered at the Wiltshire College Salisbury<\/a>, a BU Partner College. All aspects of your course from teaching, accommodation and student life will be based at the above partner college. On graduation from this course you will receive a degree from Bournemouth University. You would be welcome to book onto an Open Day<\/a> \u00a0at Wiltshire College Salisbury to gain a full understanding of the course and location.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    3. What happens at an Undergraduate<\/a> Open Day and when can I book my place to attend? <\/strong><\/p>\n

    These days are a great opportunity for you to ask questions about your course of interest, attend specific course talks, visit a wide variety of exhibition stands, both academic and non-academic, chat with the academic teams, tour the campus, visit a variety of our accommodation facilities, find out information on fees and funding, and learn more about student life at BU.<\/p>\n

    You can join us for an Open Day this autumn on either Saturday 24 October, Saturday 31 October<\/strong>, or Saturday 21 November<\/strong>. Please click here<\/a> to register your details.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    4. I have booked to attend one of your Undergraduate Open Days<\/a>, but as I\u2019ll be travelling long distance, does BU provide overnight accommodation?<\/strong><\/p>\n

    That\u2019s great to hear you\u2019ll be visiting BU this Autumn!\u00a0 I\u2019m sorry we\u2019re unable to help with providing accommodation during your visit to Bournemouth.\u00a0 However, you\u2019ll be able to find lots of information about local accommodation by visiting Bournemouth Tourist Information<\/a>.<\/p>\n

    The majority of our courses are based at Talbot Campus<\/a>. Just 3 miles away, there is a Premier Inn<\/a> as well as the Bournemouth Westcliff Hotel.\u00a0 For our Health and Social Care courses (excluding Nutrition and Sociology) you\u2019ll be based at our Lansdowne Campus<\/a>, and you\u2019ll find a Travelodge<\/a> and Premier Inn<\/a> situated in Christchurch Road, approximately a 10 minute walk.\u00a0\u00a0 We look forward to meeting you!<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    5. I\u2019m interested in being considered for one of your UK scholarships and bursaries, can you help?<\/strong><\/p>\n

    We offer a wide range of scholarships that are available for undergraduate students to reward academic excellence, and your musical or sporting talents. You can apply for more than one scholarship, if you meet the requirements, however, you will only be awarded one, if you are successful. In addition, we offer two bursaries designed to offer extra financial support for those from low income households or care leavers.\u00a0 For more information please click here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    6. I am planning on studying joint Honours, I was wondering if your university offered these?<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The only joint subjects we offer are listed on our website, such as BA (Hons) Business Studies with Law and BA (Hons) Sociology and Criminology. We do not currently offer the opportunity to combine two different degrees. For more information about our courses, please click here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
