This uni is terrible. The uni does not care about you at all. Do not live on campus as it literally feels like prison and reminds me of the psych ward. The courses themselves you barely have to put any effort in to pass and the lecturers and support staff could care less about you. The uni is terrible do not go here. read more

UEL is a bad place in terms of teaching, good place If you try and find opportunities. First year of UEL was fine, they taught you enough for you to understand the foundation of programming. Second year, WAS BAAD through our whole term we had a *teacher who didn't know anything in regards of the subject she was teaching. She basically said the answer for this is A and told us to mark it on our paper. We later on found out she is a substitute and we didn't have a teacher who knew that subject for that whole term. UEL also forced all computer students to participate and design the new London city area. This would of been fine if we were given a choice but we weren't. I believe this is because the mayor of London required all universities to get involved. Did I mention how our CLASSES got pushed back a week later for this? Third year, was fine but near the end of our term we had to go to a lesson by force near submission deadlines. This class was a 1HR sales pitch of doing a MSC at UEL. read more

I have just finished my undergraduate degree in psychology/child psychology. UEL is bar FAR the MOST shocking university there is. They are UNORGANISED, the teaching is PATHETIC, I taught myself EVERYTHING I know. Their support for students is DIABOLICAL!! You will NEVER get a response from ANY emails you send. I learnt ZERO from this university. Their dissertation module is a SHAMBLES. I would not recommend to ANYONE!!!!! Do NOT waste your time, money or application to this university. They are COMPULSIVE liars. There is NO duty of care for their students and they DO NOT understand MENTAL HEALTH. Please AVOID WITH ALL COSTS!!!!! read more

I having completed a MA course in social work with UEL and Tavistock- I have never known anything so unorganised! Placements were delayed, marking assignments were delayed by a week, and now graduation was postponed due to the marks not being sent to the assessment board in time. I would not recommend this university to anyone! Don’t waste your time or money! read more

i want to give 0 star rating but its not allow me to do. The worst university ever for international student, They will give you so importance before applying in UEL and when you pay the fees then your value is zero. They didn't solve my single query for last 5 months. I feel very regret why i choose this university, at the time of interview at the embassy i told them many qualities of this university like why i choose this university and now i am thinking this university is not even meet the single quality. i just regret, not a single student is happy with this university and i will suggest you all if you want to ruin your future then go ahead and choose this university. read more

I am overwhelmed by the level of support I am receiving by the tutors at the UEL. I study HR in my first year and I feel more than well looked after. I have great communication with all my tutors in relation to all subject matters. The most important details required for the assignments completion, are repeated sufficiently, so all students can understand and remember what exactly they need to do in order to be successful in UEL. The university exceeded my expectations by far in every aspect. The culture in the place is friendly, easy going and extremely supportive. I highly recommend UEL to anyone who is actually wants to study, learn and graduate. read more

I'm doing my MSc in Pharmaceutical Sciences and this is the biggest waste of money in my life. I have changed my career path as the teaching is so terrible I do not feel equipped to enter the field. Lecturers expect bare minimum of you and provide awful lectures which you can easily find on Google on dodgy sites so its not even their own material. Next to no actual hands on experience and limited range of research projects. Labs are not modern as advertised, and the MSc lab project room has no air con or fans so it's absolutely unbearable yet your expected to keep your legs covered and stay in there with your experiments. Assignments not challenging and most are unhelpful to learning. Staff unhelpful and rude. Student hub takes 7 months to get back to you. AVOID read more

It was difficult to give zero, I would not recommend staying on campus for anything but WiFi. The staff are pretty rude and seem to be there for a laugh. You will find caring staff, few and far between. The Campus culture starts from the TOP, not the bottom. That being said the catering staff are lovely. read more

Okay university, I personally experienced a lot of discrimination from both lecturers and peers. Fashion facilities were lacking with machines breaking often and there being a rat/mouse infestation in all the studio buildings. There seemed to be some clubs/societies but like the Student Union they aren't visible on campus. The location is alright but out of the way, not worth paying £9000 a year for in my opinion. read more
