Student Profile

Amy Lewis
“I’d never heard of Bangor until quite late in the UCAS application scheme; my mum was given a brochure with some universities in and told me to have a look at Bangor and see what I thought. We decided to come for an open day and I’ve never looked back. Something just clicked when I actually visited and I knew this would be somewhere where I would be happy to spend four years of my life.”
