King's College London (KCL) Reviews

KCL is fine. However, the residence service is absolutely useless. Go for external companies for residence.

King's College London is in every sense a prestigious place to be. Everywhere you walk around, you find the great legacy running through its veins. The study is quite good and some professor's teaching methods are absolutely fantastic. It is truly an international university and anybody studying here would be in awe of its strength, size and education. The institution is perfect in every sense, however, just needs to have a much stronger community environment, for which I have the conviction that it will achieve in the near future.

Studied here for a year. Very happy and have learnt loads. Great Staff and career prospects. The most underrated London uni!

Great college with very high quality lecturers. Great student support.

I did my distance masters here. King's shows very little interest in actually teaching. I felt like I had to know all the answers coming in & when mistakes were made there was NO opportunity to follow up to understand why. Essays with 700 word limit receive only feedback saying what else you should have written. Ask for guidance on improvement & you're sent on a wild goose chase of the poorly designed modules. I've only met one instructor who was genuinely helpful & interested in teaching. Everyone else defends their own position, making sure to not say anything that might come back to haunt them. Vague, intellectually dishonest and self-referencing is how I would best describe my interactions with the majority of the instructors. Also the only thing they teach you is what's going on at King's - so you don't get an actual full picture of the topic, they only focus on the research King's is interested in. 20k for an online masters is a ton, there is MUCH to be improved here.

Really struggling to settle in, isolating experience.

Bad Admission, charged me £60.00 without clarifying refusal, nobody answer the telephone, nobody reply letters. Students should avoid this rubbish place and think to study at another university.

Horrible uni with some of the very worst administration I have ever seen. They are more concerned in looking world-class than treating their members (both students and staff) with respect and fairness.

Brilliant university, passionate staff, dedicated students who will question your opinions and clubs left right and centre.

King's is very traditional but slowly modernizing. Sometimes you'll feel weighed down by academia, but a trip to one of the bars will snap you out of it!

Really enjoyed my time here, I would recommend

Loved my time here and will miss it very much!

Student societies here are often involved in issues such as racism and Islamophobia. If you didn't hear, the uni recently blocked left wing students' cards and those who were seen to a security threat when the Queen visited campus !!!! King's have also not revoked the degree they awarded to the Sultan of Brunei.... something to think about!!

great university i love it. It provides so much in all areas and everybody iv'e met is amazing.

Amazing university, great location!

Great time! Would highly recommend

Very bad on careers my sister went to UCL and imperial to study. My sister had advice from lecturers re her CV and possible career choices. At least at Imperial they actually had speakers come in to talk about career routes nothing lile that was offered at KCL. I only hope they've improved.

Sometimes when the WiFi doesn’t work it is very annoying

Really nice campuses in the central of London.

My mother was admitted to major trauma ward St Mary's hospital, Paddington 4 weeks ago. I came across a young nurse called CLOE NEVERSON, this nurse in my opinion should receive the Nobel prize. She is only a student nurse training through Kings college but she is superhuman. The care and attention my mother, my family and I received from Cloe was outstanding. Even when off duty, Cloe took time out to check in on, not only us, but all the other patients on the ward. This young nurse is by far the most professional, caring, understanding and competent human being I have experienced in my 51 years of life. She is going to be one of the NHS's greatest ambassador's for our health service. Well done Cloe. The O'Leary family.

Decent campus and facilities, great internet, great careers service

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.

Love the university, great location, great staff, fantastic subjects and engaging union, top marks on all fronts indeed. would definitely recommend to anyone.

University is ok, doesn't have the campus feeling other out of London university's have but is nice

Abysmal university, that has unbelievably poor administration. They are completely disorganised. Stay AWAY 100% There is a reason why King's is trailing in the league tables...

Decent university with brilliant career prospects. Considering students attend university to get a job post-graduation, what more could you want?

Good atmosphere, some aspects need some work
