Get to know other offer holders and new students

Unibuddy Community provides an official space for you to meet and get to know other new students before you arrive at BU. Through Unibuddy Community, you can:

  • Chat with offer holders ahead of joining BU
  • Find others living in or near your accommodation
  • Discover students studying the same course
  • Discuss shared interests and hobbies
  • Learn about the local area
  • Talk about welcome activities and events.

To log in, you’ll need to use the email address you have been using throughout your application process. You can view the Community in your browser, using the links below, or you can download the free ‘Unibuddy Community’ mobile application from the iOS or Android store.

Please read our pinned rules in each group chat that you join. Think carefully before you click on any links that aren’t posted by BU Admin as these are unlikely to be official Bournemouth University links.
