The facilities are nothing to gloat about however every staff member and lecturer I have met were incredibly helpful and supportive when I was in need of assistance. The lecture rooms at times may be very tight in relation to the number of students attending however it’s not bad. All students are very diverse in ethnicity, religion, and more. It provides the university with a good feeling as it allows to meet new people and understand different cultures. The lectures fluctuate in quality depending on the lecturer or the method of approach. Some lecturers bring life into lectures through humour, interesting facts, engagement with the students, and more. However sometimes these lectures can also feel dragged out at times causing loss of energy and willingness to learn. But this is partially lessened in effect as breaks are provided midway through. Overall not a bad experience in that regard. The facilities are serviceable for what the student may need. read more

I just started my second year in Digital Media and during my first one I received lots of support from the Student Services, especially the counselling as I went through some tough time with my accommodation. I also, received a bursary for £1200 that helped me to paid off some debts I had. read more

Worst and most terrible university in the UK.They give result unfair and bias to international student.I would not recommend this university to international students, particularly those from India and Pakistan.Unfortunately, I had a negative experience with the institution. Despite my best efforts, I was informed by a professor in advance that I was likely to fail a course, which ultimately came to pass. Furthermore, when I attempted to retake the course, the same professor was assigned, which I found to be unhelpful. It seemed that the university prioritized supporting their staff over providing adequate support to students. I believe that financial considerations may have played a role in this decision. Overall, I was disappointed with the lack of support and resources provided to international They are so many students in this university who faced same problem like me and no one is ready to help you. read more

London met is a terrible Uni. Most teaching staff are not capable and do it as a side gig. The facilaties are poor, equipment from the 70s and 80. The administration is poor and unresponsive. The software used to run cource programs is poorly operatered frequently inaccesable and ofter not used by poorly trained casual teaching staff who simple cant be bothered.They rely on agressive fraudulent recrutment of international students to keep the place afloat. I had a full semester with no instructor and when i complained they response months later was you got a good grade so too bad for you. Absolute scam of a University. read more

I feel like as London Met is a very diverse university and if you are not native English speaker will be feeling alright there. Most of the lecturers were trying and giving a lot to pass their knowledge and to help us understand how to pass the exam but some seemed not that engaged ( They looked fed up of doing what they are doing in my modest opinion) Also not too many yang teachers at least on my course (ingerlred read more

Extremely unproffesional and unorganised. Came to this University passionate to learn Interior Design, but now feel completely disillusioned. We are hardly taught anything but expected to complete vast amounts of work. I learn more from staying at home and learning off google/youtube. If you give feedback you are bullied. Honestly, look elsewhere if are passioante about what you want to learn - because this university will not teach you the skills. read more

The university building is very unwelcoming and facilities are minimal. There are little to no clubs or society's to join and therefore difficult to make friends. Some lecturers do not speak great English which can be a barrier to learning and a number of my friends have dropped out because they disliked the uni. read more
