King's College London

What is undeniable is the amazing location and the overall experience the university brings because of being at the heart of one of the most vibrant cities. I love the multiple opportunities the university brings you and moreover the content of my own degree.

The community at King's is extremely friendly and inclusive. Lecturers and professors are approachable and always up for discussions around the course and research. Only issue is the disorganisation of the residences/accommodation department.

Campuses are generally lovely. The course is interesting but some modules are either not intellectually stimulating or disorganised. Student union and gym facilities are some of the best I have seen.

The MBBS programme at King's College London has been reformed to provide students with opportunities for comprehensive clinical learning from as early as the second year. With a mixture of lectures, tutorials, dissections, simulation workshops and clinical placements, students can immediately begin augmenting their preclinical knowledge with clinical experiences, preparing us for life as a doctor from the outset. To top it all, Guy's Campus is situated in the ideal location of London Bridge, a hub of innovation and marvellous sights.

Has three main campuses which is nice. Each has pretty good facilities and libraries open 24/7 which is very convenient. For the most part facilities are good but sometimes tutorials are overpacked and lectures are conducted in lecture theatres that don’t have desks. The wide variety of societies is great. Also the student body is very diverse in all aspects of the word which is great.

Love most things about this university including the attentive lefturers on my course- ma sustainable cities, student Union is great, love the cheap coffees at the cafe. Never used the careers service so far. Coursework marks are back quite slowly - I have waited a month before for a masters mark. The rooms are generally good and fit for purpose but I have found myself in lecture halls more than once that aren’t large enough for the number of students.

The positives of the university are the teaching and international reputation it holds. In terms of the teaching distinguished professors are not afraid to take 2hr seminars with students and are generally always available and happy to meet subject to research days etc. Linked to this is it’s reputation both domestically and abroad, with King’s considered a top university by employers. King’s lacks in terms of student satisfaction but this is know by applicants. Overall excellent university that will provide and excellent degree but perhaps not so much the other parts of uni life.

The location is really bad, not a very student friendly location I would say. However the university has opened a really nice new building (bush house) which has been being upgraded and expanded. The facility is good if your main campus is bush in bush house since all is new. The facilities in other campus are old. The quality of the course is more towards research compared to other uni course. Career service is the best, so use it well. I can't really say anything about the organisation as it depends on your department. The student representative of my department is doing good coping with the complaints from the students.

I study medicine at kings. They introduced a new curriculum the year before I started which meant that students have clinical exposure a lot sooner than most other universities allow. This was a great feature for me as I learn best through practice! The campus I’m mainly based at is Guy’s in London Bridge. This particular campus itself is great however it is difficult to meet people outside of your course unless you live in halls. Kings has so many campuses dotted around London so it doesn’t have a traditional campus feel unfortunately. Having said that the facilities are great. We have some amazing libraries and study rooms and plenty of space to hang out with your friends too. I am a committee member for a society here at Kings and I can say that the student union is extremely helpful in organising events etc! The range of societies available is incredible so you’re bound to find something you like!

King's college London is placed at a great location in the center of London. The teachers are all extremely qualified and it offers great facilities, such as the library. The atmosphere is extremely diverse, thanks to the big amount of international students, however the food in the cafeteria lacks quality and it's price is rather expensive.

I find that KCL is a great choice to study Philosophy, Politics and Economics. The lecturers are dedicated to their respective fields and it shows in their teaching. Overall a great university experience although administrative issues are resolved fairly slowly.

I've felt incredibly supported by the uni through my own personal struggles, however there absolutely is a sense of classism in the uni through their extortionate student accommodation rents - London may be expensive but don't make it more expensive for your already struggling students!

My course is international development and it is a new program still in the experimental phase but adequate.

Very nice location, open campus so doesn't feel like school "prison". A LOTTT of facilities and activities available. Always re-innovating buildings and open to listen for ideas from students. Could do better overall in the sciences (biomedical and related) in terms of organization and choices of subjects

Great uni with a great atmosphere and lots of vibrant intelligent people who are all here with the intention of becoming successful individuals in the future. I really feel at home at kings as I have met so many interesting people with lots of exciting stories and experiences to share. Overall we are a very diverse uni with a lot to offer, potential wise. Really enjoy every moment of my kings experience.

Amazing student union! Longest standing in London - with over 100s of societies led by students, you never get bored! One of the things I like most about the university is definitely the student community and also the work ethic that swarms the campuses. Charity/welfare is also a big aspect of the ethos of the student community which I admire! I am enjoying my course thoroughly (Medicine), and am happy with the delivery of content. The school does plenty to ensure effective liaison between students and staff, ensuring our health and wellbeing through regular personal tutor meetings etc. Career services are also widespread in the university. Furthermore, many career talks and workshops are regularly being held about campuses, for all to attend and explore interests!

Guy's campus is very cosy and has a great atmosphere. The main building has the New Hunts Library which is two floors and there are lots of computer rooms but they tend to get booked by a lot of classes which can be frustrating. Hodgkin is good for quiet study with the Will's library which is a silent zone. The shed is very cheap and has a great selection of wraps, paninis and salads as well as pastries and hot drinks which are £1.50-3.

King's is a nice university. My lectures take place at Guy's campus and the facilities are good although more communal space for students could be improved here. The Waterloo campus isn't as good but the cafeterias are decent. Teaching on my course is great and the bioscience lecturers are very engaging. Lab time is useful and lecture capture comes in handy. The Students Union is ok but dominated by sporty types. I prefer to go out elsewhere. The societies are plentiful and I enjoy musical theatre. I wish that the online KEATs system was easier to use but suspect that it will be improved in due course.

Really engaged student Union and recently modernised facilities. The teaching is excellent and the careers service is very helpful.

Kings College london specifically guys campus is a diverse community of students who are driven and passionate about the various fields in science. I found that the facilities and resources provides by kings are very good quality and am very happy to be a part of the community due to the friendly and positive atmosphere.

Campus is nice and central with many activities to do around. Students from all over the world with many different backgrounds making it easy to find and make friends. Good lecturers depending on the course but if Econ or Business student the facilities and the lecturers are really good.

King' has a very strong reputation and to maintain that a lot of hardwork is required. There are essays and assignments one after the other constantly. As a history student there is always a reading to do, do not be fooled by the short university hours. If you are looking to have fun and to constantly go clubbing or on nights out, this is not the place for you. The location itself is in central london and always allows you to experience the London life. However the accommodations itself is pretty far from the university and it requires you to take the tube ( which can be very bothersome and expensive). The Maugham library is massive and very resourceful (thought finding books can be a very difficult task as a result of the layout system). Overall if you are a very academic person then this university is perfect for you.

King's definitely has a strong reputation and to maintain that, a lot of hardwork is required. There are many essays one after the other and as a history student there is always a reading or a task to complete. Do not be fooled by the short university hours. Since it is very insistent on academics, King's (in my opinion) is not the best at it's social aspect. If you are looking to have fun and constantly go clubbing or on night's out - this is not the university for you. The location is great, it's at the heart of central London and allows you to experience London life constantly. However the accommodations are far from the campus and many required you to take the tube (which can be very bothersome and expensive). In regards to library facilities, the Maughan library is massive and very resourceful (though the organisation of the books makes it hard to find), also the building itself is her impressive.

Currently doing a Masters at King's-Course quite structured and informative.Facilities are modern and are first class.Staff are always friendly and helpful.Tutors quite knowledgeable and skilled in their area of expertise.
