Very good experience. Good location, good social life and clubbing. Many sports and societies. Overall the teaching was very good. Facilities were very new. Kingston Uni and Kingston are amazing

Kingston school of Art is a tightly knit campus which is great for working and the social environment of my campus. My course isn’t connected much to the campus but is connected through out the years

Very open, and relaxed atmosphere. Everyone is so lovely and keen to learn. I very much enjoy studying here and I would definitely reccomend anyone to come study here to give a true view of university life.

Good facilities, supportive staff (though can be at times too laid back with deadlines), nice people and mostly organised.

University is cosy and helpful. Any help I need, I know exactly where to go and that the help will be given. The only downside is the size. Would like the uni bigger and more places to just spend free time. Also, the uni bar should be back ??

Campus is dated but relatively decent. Good size, not often too over crowded. Library is great though more PC access wouldn't go amiss. Film course feels somewhat lacking on facilities. The mid/high end cameras are more low/mid range and then the lights and sound stuff? Old and knackered for the most part, or relatively incompatible. Teachers are good at certain aspects though it feels as though they miss a large part of what makes filmmaking filmmaking and have seemingly limited experience- especially technically. Funding is definitely a huge limitation. Student union is pretty slamming. In a different campus but it's more or less what you'd expect. There's a lack of community compared to other universities I've visited but I think that may be the case for a lot of London universities. Honestly I've been quite lucky and haven't looked into any careers services, though I also don't remember them being mentioned so that's probably more poor organisation on my courses part. Overall I've had a good experience. Met great friends, had good times but there are also some fairly heavy downs. The course often feels unorganized and a few staff seem constantly confused and a couple just do not seem to know what they should know for people in their position. (Not really a part of this but rent is crazy expensive like yooohh. That's put a bit of strain on the course having to work to afford rent but hey, I'm sure a lot of people have to)

I love Kingston university! It's a complete contrast to my previous degree. Staff are friendly and really supportive. The facilities are great! I would encourage anyone to apply for the PGCE here.

Overall the campus is rather modern and with a good LRC, great canteen and a good student union. My course, Geography, has experienced lecturers that are easy to contact and there for support.

I love this uni, on the Knights Park Campus everything is catered to the needs of an art student and then amplified, we have the best workshops and the technicians are brilliant, the library is a great place for us to work and we love having our own subject studios

Very welcoming and helpful towards students with educational and standard lifestyle enquiries. Large variety of ethnicity and society choices such as cultural, faith, sport and so on.

The campuses at Kingston university are great. With useful libraries, technology and resources. The canteen serves delicious food but could be more open to vegetarian and vegan options (being vegetarian myself I speak from experience). The social areas are calming and provide a little community if you need it

Knights park campus is decent. Very good facilities for printmaking the graphics course is the best in the country. Everyone knows everyone. Penrhyn is strange to me but has a good library. I don't go there often
