Maria
UWE BristolArtFor me, everything started when I was in kindergarten. My days would be spent singing, dancing, painting, making bread and climbing every tree in the garden. After kindergarten, I went to the Music Conservatory where I graduated after 11 years of playing the flute. However, that was not enough so I continued to explore what art could mean and how many forms it could have. So, at 18 I decided to have my first ballet class. It was then that I discovered my passion for dance and performance and decided to dedicated myself intensively to the dance world until COVID-19 hit. It was during lockdown that I became interested in learning how to sew so I could create costumes to empower my performances. I started making my own video dances and films. Now, I am not only a musician and a performer, but I am also a costume-maker and set designer. -

Oscar
University of PlymouthBA (Hons) ArchitectureHi, I'm Oscar. I'm looking to pursue a career in Architecture through my strong passion for Art and Design. I had previously lived in Hong Kong at a young age, and so love to travel and engage in new experiences. Having joined the University through clearing, Plymouth was not my initial destination. However, now being well into my third year of study it is fair to say I have never looked back. I'm here to answer any of your questions regarding Architecture and/or general life as a Uni student! -
Kirsty
Bournemouth UniversityBSc (Hons) PhysiotherapyHi, I'm Kirsty a third year physio student. I am looking toward working within the NHS and the placements at uni have definitely helped me think yeah this is the right course for me. I've always had a dream of doing physio but got to uni worried it was just something I was caught up on. However, after 1st year I 100% knew that this was the course I wanted to do in the future and there are so many routes to go down! Please do ask me any questions about the course or life at uni, I'll be happy to answer! -
Chloe
University of PlymouthBSc (Hons) Business ManagementMy dedicated future plans consists of continuous career development within Business Management but my final decisions on what route to go down is still undecided! The best thing about University is you have a year (or two if you complete a foundation year) to explore the different subjects to understand what you enjoy most. I have 7 years experience in Human Resources so if you want advice, I am the lady to ask! My life background has been different to say the least, but it has made me more dedicated to succeed more, and your previous life experiences does not dictate your success in you future. -

Alexia
Bournemouth UniversityBSc (Hons) Psychology with CounsellingHi, I’m Alexia! I’m a second year student in my undergraduate degree (including a placement year), working as a student ambassador for BU. I have Portuguese parents but I was born in the UK, so I am more fluent in English but I can hold a good conversation in Portuguese :]. In the future, I want to become a counselling psychologist/therapist and also pursue music in some form (although that bit isn’t planned out yet lol). I have 2 Mainecoon cats and practice a variety of sports and musical instruments, including kickboxing and piano. It’ll be tough to balance everything this year but I’m determined to stay healthy and happy throughout my degree and make the most out of the social aspect of uni! -
Zainab
UWE BristolSoftware Engineering for BusinessI was born and raised in Nigeria and joined UWE early 2023. I will admit I waited till the last minute to decide to pursue software engineering as a degree, but I do believe I made the right decision. My passion for coding and software development is growing by the day and I cannot wait to apply my abilities in the real world. That’s not to say I don’t suffer from imposter syndrome occasionally, but I do think being in the right environment has really helped change my mindset and attitude. -

Bristol
Tucked between Somerset and Gloucestershire, many forget that Bristol is both a city – known for its alternative and creative culture – and its own county.
Well connected to Wales, Cornwall, London and Birmingham, Bristol combines plenty of styles, architecture and music – plus the iconic Clifton Suspension Bridge over Avon Gorge.
Cornwall
With over 300 miles of coastline, you'll be dazzled by Cornwall’s magnificent beaches, dramatic cliffs, winding roads and Bronze Age remains.
Once you’ve worked up an appetite on the waves or in the hills, there are plenty of tasty local treats too – from Cornish pasties, to fudge and ice cream.
Devon
Life moves at a gentle pace in most of these parts, with small seaside towns scattered across its two delightful coastlines.
Meanwhile, its two biggest cities, Plymouth and Exeter, have all the bustle, nightlife and shopping you could want.
Dorset
Just under half of Dorset is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, while the captivating Jurassic Coast is England’s only natural UNESCO World Heritage Site, stretching almost 100 miles.
It’s no wonder Dorset has inspired authors, filmmakers, and tourists alike – with Bournemouth a popular destination for students and beach enthusiasts.
Gloucestershire
Many consider Gloucestershire to offer the quintessential English experience. You'll find Cheltenham’s rows of white regency architecture, Gloucester's splendid Cathedral and docks, and many a cute village in The Cotswolds, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
A big festival county – including Cheltenham's world-famous Literature, Science and Jazz Festivals – Gloucestershire's also home to the intelligence agency, GCHQ.
Somerset
Largely rural, with a small population for its size, Somerset’s main centre is Bath – a popular student city and a UNESCO World Heritage site, famous for its preserved Roman baths and Georgian architecture.
Plus, many believe Cadbury Castle to be the fabled Camelot of King Arthur.
Wiltshire
Rural Wiltshire has some intriguing landmarks, most notably the incredible Stonehenge. Attracting over a million visitors every year, the prehistoric monument has baffled experts.
Lesser known are Wiltshire’s White Horses, carved in the rolling hills across the county.
