I have been living at Goodenough for a year. I am very pleased for my decision to apply here as before I was living in a shared house. The location is great especially if you study at UCL, Birkbeck, SOAS and City. My department is just two min away (UCL) and there is a range of shops, cafes and restaurants around. Regarding social life, it is the best place to be. There is always something going on here. Also, there are many clubs and societies and the College supports each one of them so for sure you will find one that matches your interests. Students here come from all over the world so it is ideal if you are looking for a vibrant international community. As far as the room itself, I am very pleased with the size (room b at London House) and the College provides cleaning once a week and clean bedsheets etc. It also has a desk so you can even study at your room but I always study at the Goodenough library which is super cool!

Contrary to its names and values, actual culture the hall maintain is very toxic. Bullying and racial discrimination are norms; if you are from Asian countries or have Asian background, you will be superseded by White, European peers. In this hall, British culture is the top and must be respected, while other cultures are ignored at best, laughed at the worst.

GC is an international private student hall for postgrad students. It is not affiliated with any university and as such draws a large variety of members to its halls. It's an amazing place to live and study with a hectic social calendar and something for everyone. Would 100% recommend :D
