Student review
Gaining a BA (English and Sociology) at UNE was the best decision I've ever made. The quality of the teaching and learning materials was excellent. I absolutely loved going to Armidale for the intensives, even though it was a stretch financially and time wise sometimes. This degree opened up the possibilities of further study.
