Ardin Mbie France
I decided to study at BUELI because it is very well known on the Gold Coast. The lifestyle is great, it has wonderful infrastructure and is a beautiful campus. I particularly enjoyed joining the soccer clubs. The
highlight of my study has been learning and practicing my English. I have now been able to carry out some of my dreams.
Renato Flores Brazil
Choosing BUELI to study was the best decision I have made. The lifestyle at BUELI is amazing. I am able to practice my English constantly whilst also having fun. Bond University is a prestigious university with high quality
teachers. Not only have I improved my English, but have made friends from all over the world. I will never forget this experience.
