University College London

Terrible facilities. We had lecturers in hotel conference rooms which did not have white boards or desks so learning was unbearable. The staff don't care about the students and it takes ages to get something done. The only good things were some of the courses and the location.

In terms of clubs and societies, there are many available in a wide range of different interests. Facilities are generally good although some are very old and need refurbishing. Many libraries available all over campus so there will always be space. Gym is very close to campus but also very small and can get very busy at times.

Ucl is a university that is in danger of sliding into a very bad state. It's future goals are based on increasing their revenue at a serious cost to students. They plan to increase the number of students, but already the libraries and study spaces are at maximum capacity. The organisation of UCL is often very lacking, with lectures and seminars frequently cancelled or moved without prior notice. The teaching is good, however. The lectures are some of the top academics in the world and the research happening here is groundbreaking.

Course is fantastic, there is so much to do as you’re with a lot of other students, and being in London is crazy. It’s expensive, they’ve overexpanded recently so your teaching time isn’t great and you’re left on your own. Accomodation locations are insane, and great chance to get uses to city living if that’s where you’d like to work!

It is clearly a world class Uni. It is ranked as the worlds 7th best and England’s third best - easily the best in London. Lots to do and a very nice campus. Also it is In the city of London so you can do whatever the hell you want. University college London is the definition of work hard play hard. The university has some of the best lecturers in the world whilst providing the best social events from amazing sports teams to some of the very best club nights. It is a great place I absolutely love it to bits and am exited for my three years here because it is o esteemed and just pure quality.

Beautiful area and amazing Campus. Incredible facilities regarding the libraries and study spaces, but way too crowded recently. The increasing number of students does not imply the increase in the quality as well :) UCL should really listen to their students' opinion..

The campus is very international, there are many pubs and student centres all around. UCL is a very prestigious university.

I am extremely satisfied with the overall facilities that UCL offers to students. The Bloomsbury Campus in particular is a great campus and everything is accessible.

I personally dont like city campus that much, but there are pros and cons. Staying in the central of the city allow you to travel anywhere just by walking, Oxford street is just 15 minutes away, Soho and Covent Garden with tons of food are nearby too. But, for me I'm based in School of Pharmacy, a building isolated from the main campus. Sadly, I dont have much interactions with the main campus, and our library is small, not opening for long hours like all the main libraries do, only have one large lecture theatre. We dont have much food choices in the canteen but generally still good, and Brunswick is just 5 minutes away. So conclusion, facilities are not that satisfied in my building and the isolation from main campus make me feel even worse as I would prefer a campus life.

Great course, although some areas of disorganisation that leads to frustration over projects and their deadlines. The staff is a bit varied - some are brilliant and funny but some fail to grasp the attention of the room and their style can be very lackluster. Overall, I'd be very surprised if you were to have all bad teachers. Being in London is great and the building is super central.

Overall, it is good. But the lectures should be better at teaching and explaning. In terms of organisation, they should plan better the module capacity, so students don’t have to sit on the floor.

The main campus has a new area outside the South Quad that is spacious and great for a break in the middle of the day. Just down the stairs is the new cafeteria which not only serves a much larger selection of food but the quality is generally better than before. The seating area is larger and there are many charging points available for students to use to study in the area whilst it is not meal times. It is to be noted however some regulations could be put in place to ensure that students do not study in the area during peak meal hours as spaces can get limited. There are a wide variety of courses offered ranging from arts to sciences and the best part is that electives allows for you to take an arts subject even if you're getting a science degree. Downside being there are no sports facilities but that is the payoff in a city University. However there are two gyms located in the vicinity of the University which offer very generous prices for students which is always a plus!

We have a pretty brilliant student union, they organise some great activities and nights out, as well as serious stuff, like careers fairs, that are actually really helpful.

The campus is beautiful and the facilities are very good. The library is huge but seating options are limited. Organisation of the university is excellent. Gym is really good. Overall good experience

The best and the worst of UCL all comes from the fact it is in central London. Exciting, bustling streets around Tottenham Court Road and Euston make for a buzz in the air and easy access to the country's hottest and freshest bars and events, but at the same time you sacrifice space to live and work and finding good sports facilities means travelling further out of town. UCL draws a truly multi-cultural student demographic and you certainly get to broaden your horizons much more than other places. the influence of London means UCL is culturally always one step ahead of the rest of the country.

I had a hard time in first year settling in, and there seemed to be little available to help me. However, once joining a couple of societies and getting involved in plays and shows and things, I managed to end my first year relatively content with the friends I’d made. The course has been mixed for me, with both positive and negative aspects. However, the one-on-one tutorial system has been probably the best thing about doing my course at UCL, and without it, I think I would’ve dropped out.

Campus is good - it has a nice feel and don't mind having to spend 5-10 minutes walking between my lectures. Learning facilities, however, can sometimes be lacking. There have been several occasions where I've been forced to sit on the floor of a 2 hour lecture because there weren't enough seats to accommodate everyone. Sports facilities, understandably, are also lacking due to UCL's central location, but at the same time I don't want to have to travel to outer London to play sports on a Wednesday afternoon. Organisation is unbelievably poor for a university of UCL's status - too many last minute room changes, too few seats in teaching rooms, tutors showing up late for tutorials (not blaming the tutors themselves here) and exam timetable being released late are just a few things I've noticed over the last two and a bit years.

UCL has low student satisfaction and finding a seat in the library during exam season is daunting, but most lecturers are great and the campus is located in central London so you will never run out of things to try in the area.

Could be improved - too many students, not enough facilities. Lecture theaters were always too packed (people sitting on the floor).

the psychology facilities are awful, the lecturers are terrible and the people in my course are not as nice as they thought they were. would not recommend anyone to study there

The campus is not the best but the help and support we get is incredible. Careers service, especially is great and encourages students to get involved by constant reminder emails.

The campus is located in the central London which could be arrived by various kinds of transport. However because of the location, the space in campus is a bit limited. Students don't have enough space for reading. All the necessary facilities could be found in campus. The student union is quite active and raised a lot of interesting activities for students every year. The career service could always give the students enough help what they need. In general, I'm quite satisfied and proud to be a student in UCL! The person in UCL is quite nice and I love this place and people here!

we have a brilliant university with lot of nice people, however the course structure is not planned too well. the overall environment is good but not enough of sporting activities.

Provides excellent career opportunities and carries significant prestige however, poor facilities and overcrowding massively weigh on the institutions potential.
