Starting Uni?

Starting Uni?

Heading to uni in 2025? You might be feeling a whole range of emotions – excited, nervous, unsure … or you might not be feeling much! Perhaps you have lots of expectations about what uni will bring, or maybe you don’t know what to expect. Wherever you’re at, uni is a new stage of life. It’s a fresh start. It’s a new beginning. And that means new friends and opportunities and experiences … and also new challenges. Uni is an incredible time of life. And Campus Bible Study exists to help you make the most of your Uni experience! 

Why join a Uni Christian group?

With all the change and new opportunities at Uni, Christian groups provide valuable community, support and grounding to help you thrive in this exciting new season. Campus Bible Study is a vibrant and inclusive group of local and international students, commuting and living on campus, undergrad and post-grad. It is a safe and supportive environment to explore big and important questions about life and faith – who you are and who you want to be. Whether you want to find out who Jesus is, or are keen to grow and serve in your Christian faith, a Uni Christian group is an excellent place to start!

Don’t just take our word for it, listen to what some students have to say in the video below! And if you’re not sure which uni you’ll be going to, we’d love to connect you with the Christian group on your campus!

Get in touch!

CORE
TRAINING

Because the Christian life is about service, CORE Training is a series of practical small group training courses. They will equip you to know and share what you believe, to read the Bible on your own and with others, to lead a Bible Study group, and help you transition from Uni to the rest of your life!

Make the most of your university years to be equipped to serve now and well into the future!

CORE
THEOLOGY

If God has made the world and the Bible tells us how we are to live in the world, theology is all about knowing God truly and learning to view the world with His eyes.

CORE Theology is a fun and engaging weekly seminar that won’t let you sit back with indifference. Wherever you are, we want to stretch your thinking and firm-up your foundation to live rightly in service of God and others!
