KCL is a great university with talented staff. The way the university is organised is excellent. Only problem is the buildings are old. The professors are lovely and often hard working and clearly care a lot about their students. You could not get a better package anywhere else! Career, Sport, Nightlife and amazing people - it's all right there! Overall, kcl is good university

Guys campus is a friendly social area with borough market and high street around the corner. The facilities are very good and dentistry is a very rewarding yet challenging degree to be reading. The student union offer a range of supporting and fun societies.

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.

I had an amazing time during my undergraduate at king's college. The education was second to none with some of the best academics and guest lecturers in the world. The student body was so diverse and vibrant in all ways. My only negative is that their administration is very inefficient.

Kings is located in the perfect area of London, enough for you to be carried away in the hustle bustle of city workers but also surrounded by the world's most iconic monuments such as the Shard, River Thames circles most of our campuses not to mention the Strand is home to great places to eat! As a medical student we don't move about too much but having taken a few humanities modules I have explored the other campuses and they offer good facilities- business students benefiting the most from newly refurbished Bush House!! All in all, kings is definitely a good university. I wish the admin could keep up to date though!

All of the King's college campus' are great, with good, clean facilities, good security. The support staff are brilliant and the department staff are very helpful. King's is generally organised well, the only issue can sometimes be the timetable organisation.

The campuses and facilities are world class and state of the art. The material learned in lectures is also very interesting and useful for when you start a career. The only issue I faced which decreased my overall experience is that the university can be disorganised at times, especially when it comes to the KEATS website and making sure all the material for modules is there and updated when it should be.

King's College London is a brilliant university. The campuses are beautiful, especially Guy's Campus and Strand Campus and are all located in key locations. The staff are really helpful, all lecturers are eager to answer questions and to help you out when needed. The careers office staff are always arranging events to meet representatives of different companies and organisations and are really helpful to prepare you for Job interviews etc. There are tons of societies and all of them are friendly and open to every student.

A great university that supports it's students. Frequent 1 to 1s and knowledgeable staff to ensure you get the best grade. A negative I experienced was that there is a lack of support for job hunting after graduation

Guys, KCL is one of the best uni in London. The uni has several campuses at different locations around central London depending on ur course subject. I'm based at Guy's campus and I can truly say that this uni experience has been amazing. There are plenty of facilities including nice bars and restaurants in the uni, the gym too! The student union offers loads of opportunities to get involved as well as talks and fun gatherings. Careers services are also available to all.

Overall kings has been a fantastic university and I have NO serious complains. The campus and facilities are very good and overall knowledge about living away from home and how to budget your finances are very well done. However the only complaint I have is because of their admin team. By this I mean not responding to emails quick enough and sometimes not at all. Recently I and a large number of my peers received an email that was not for us but the content of the email caused some of us distrss. Other than that kings is a great uni in the heart of London with a lot of opportunities available.

Having taken the International Relations course, I couldn't have expected anything more than what KCL has to offer. The modules are carefully designed to ensure everything in this field of study is covered. The lecturer and seminar leaders are top-notch. Finally, the assessments are allocated in such a way, that tests students without too much pressure.

Kings college London is a fantastic university. It is in the heart of London, making it a prime location to study. With some of the best tutors and lecturers, KCL is the place to thrive in education. There's loads of society's for basically anything you can think of, and they're really easy to join into. Everyone is willing to except new people at any time so it's a really friendly atmosphere. It has my top marks on all fronts indeed and I would definitely recommend to anyone.

Campus locations are ideal and varied around the main areas I need access to as part of my course e.g. hospitals. As well as this, the university is very prestigious and this is portrayed through the overall impression that I have so far.

Very helpful, especially things like capture to catch up with missed lectures. Lecturers are quite charismatic and you get many different lectures depending on the topic, so you know that you're being lecture by someone who is an expert in their field.

The campuses have a really vibrant atmosphere, with facilities and social networks for everyone. There are facilities for all sorts of clubs and societies, and if there aren't, the student union is a great contact to address any issues.

King's is an elitist university with an incredible hostile environment for students who aren't rich or/and white. You won't feel like you fit in unless you fit that. King's makes no effort to care for student, with halls prices through the roof and the SU not doing enough to support students either. My course is completely scoped towards content that doesn't actually matter that much when it comes to material change in the world (Politics). King's says it wants to have positive affects but I haven't seen a university make so many people unhappy as King's has, including its students, workers and lecturers. There is no sense of community and mental health services are dreadful, taking weeks to get any sort of help at all. King's doesn't care about its students, it cares about making a profit.
