Beautiful campus with lots of study spaces within and around campus. I also love the sports facilities. The mix of international students is also great so many activities to get integrated.
I love KCL and I love mathematics! Please give me a PhD
Best Uni ever. Campus is so beautiful, especially strand campus which is right in the middle of London. There are tons of spaces to study or chill with your friends, and the nearby Maugham library is gorgeous too. The career service is amazing with lots of events and opportunities to increase your employability. The clubs and societies I have been to are all high quality. King’s is the best
The campuses, such as Strand, are striking and notable. However not much emphasis is put on giving first year's career guidance.
So far everything been good. many societies and staff are polite, lecturers are helpful.
good central location of campus, society’s are generally very friendly and accessible be everyone
Overall studying at kcl has been really fun and exciting as it is a super diverse community with lots of opportunities available for students
The university have very welcoming and supportive staff, they will make it clear to come to them should you need any help or have any questions of the course/lectures.
The classroom is overcrowded with too few seats, making it often cramped and the experience quite average. Some teachers read from scripts during their lectures, which is very dull.
The campus facilities are decent, but the Wi-Fi only connects within a certain range.
Overall lecturers and members of staff are approachable and helpful, you can tell they actually care about what we learn. Some campuses don’t have common areas so it’s hard to meet other students or socialise without joining societies.
The location of the campus is too far.
I love my campus, and the study spaces provided. Looking to get involved with the societies and clubs, and of course, my department!
High level teachers, very good infrastructure and lots of academic and social activities
due to the guys campus having some areas underground the WIFI isn't very good and causes problems at times
The worst admin the most random grades amazing students and societies and professor but on god it’s archaic and will put you in inane distress especially if you have neurodivergent disabilities . Maughan library is great but again it’s just the weight of admin is Absoloutely crushing
It's great, vibrant, lots to do
I’m a third year biomedical science student at kings and I can confidently say that it has been the most enjoyable 3 years of my life. I’ve had experiences things/ events I would never had the opportunity to do if I hadn’t gone kings. I’ve met the best people and have made friendships that will last the rest of my life because of the societies I had joined.
ok, community isn't great and teaching can be hit and miss but research is good
Very good school with plenty of fun events and student support!
Very good university, poor WiFi on campus, overcrowding classes, poor timetable admin
All the campuses are great and clean and all provide amazing services.
There are so many clubs and societies to choose from
Time here so far has been welcoming beyond my expectations, it's relatively easy to settle right in. The teachers are willing to help where they can and support independence. Other Kings students are friendly and easy to talk to
Excellent! Really happy to be here:)
Kings is a great university where you can find opportunities to grow and improve yourself, ready for employment or further education. The admin is quite slow but I think it is made up for by the vast. Umber of help services available.
Neelam is an exceptionally friendly and approachable stuff at the apartment. Talking to her always makes me feel like breathing in the spring breeze . She is meticulous and dedicated in her work, with a strong passion and a very professional attitude. As someone new to this country, her warm reception made me feel truly welcome. Every time we meet, she calls me 'sweetheart,' which reminds me of my kindergarten teacher and brings back memories of my childhood. I'm so grateful to Neelam for always sharing her warmth and positive energy with everyone.
Amazing university, with brilliant facilities such as the labs and the patient care simulation suites. There are plenty of societies to choose from so you will never get bored, and the university itself is very diverse, including many different people of many different backgrounds. The staff are brilliant teachers and support you with your every need. There are so many oppurtinities available, such as clinical placements throughout all years if your a healthcare student as well as being able to study abroad. The university aims to support its students’ mental health and to make sure they’re safe as well as enjoying their time at their university.
Loved every single part of it.
Well ranked university that gave me excellent and unique experiences on my course although administration is lacking in organisation
I completely my undergraduation at King's and now pursuing my master's at Kings too. It has by far been one of the best decisions to join King's. I genuinely feel that studying at King's has enriched my knowledge and really adds value to my career.
KCL academic staff on guys campus and employment staff are great and helpful. Always open to questions and are very supportive. Admin team and accommodation team are complete opposite. I avoid them like the plague and try to sort my issues out without their ‘help’ first. Accommodation team love being curt and lack the ability to show sympathy or kindness and never wish to be on the phone or discuss issues.
pretty good！！Staff are really and helpful
Always great reception and Neelam is always so nice
It has been a great year studying at kings.
need more technical labs for students
Has been a busy year at kings, there’s lots going on and lots to do. Studying has been intense, but good facilities available.
I like the school's location very much. It allows me to pass by the beautiful streets of central London every day. Studying by the Thames makes me feel happy.
