I did the BCUC (now "Bucks New Uni") one in it's second year of running (i.e. those who started it are now in their third year), but left after the first year. Why? Cos I couldn't afford the lump sum for the ATPL theory & hourbuilding, and also didn't particularly like the BCUC/Cabair/OFT combo. The degree was not that challenging, the facilites not awfully "uni-like" (compared to Southampton/Exeter/Norwich for example) however the coursemates were a top bunch of people. Cabair seemed to make an awful lot of cockups regarding money, their liason between students & themselves left an awful lot to be desired IMHO - they came across very much so as an uncaring large corporation far more interested in cash than customer service (I would hasten to add that the instructors were fine in all manners actually flying related). OFT is discussed elsewhere on this forum.
I'm now doing my ATPL theory/flying through Old Sarum & Bristol GS - both of which I'd highly recommend. Gonna go back and do the top up year at Kingston next year after I've got my fATPL
