Apply now“I applied through Clearing to study Philosophy and Ethics and Psychology, which was exactly what I wanted to do. I hadn’t heard of Bath Spa University before, but the website gave the impression that the University really cares about the student's mental health, which was very important for me.
When I started in September, I was immediately shocked at the beauty of the University campus and how kind a lot of the students and staff were.”
– Florence, Philosophy and Ethics and Psychology BSc, first year
