Hostel:

King's has several accommodation options to choose from including post-graduate-only accommodation for those who do not want to mix with undergraduate students who tend to be noisy. On average the accommodation would cost £800 a month which is typical of London prices. My accommodation was extremely clean, spacious, and architecturally beautiful. The staff was extremely helpful and polite. I also found the place quite safe as one could only access the buildings using key cards that were added to your ID card. The kitchens were very spacious and had plenty of storage space. The accommodation also had a common area for students to relax or play games. There was a laundry room and a gym as well for all students to access.

I chose the university for its high global ranking (15th in the world) and excellent reputation. I was also impressed by their focus on psychiatric and neurological research which is what I am interested in pursuing.

Hostel:

There are range of accommodations which differ greatly in terms of price and facilities offered. The cheapest accommodation is around £160/ week and it can rise up to £400/week for fancy studios. They all include common rooms, laundry rooms and a library.

I have chosen this university because of the immaculate course. The course has incredible flexibility as in Y2 you can choose very tailored modules to yourself after a Y1 which is a taster of the wide range of modules. These include: anatomy, biochemistry, genetics, neuroscience, pharmacology, cell biology among others. The campus is also situated in the heart of London with walking journey to attractions such as London eye, tower bridge etc.

Hostel:

Student halls available at varied cost. All single rooms in flats, some with en-suite. Pay more for more central location

More integrated curriculum with placement earlier on, rather than 3 years of pure science which I would not have enjoyed. London life seemed fun and exciting.

Campus Life:

My overall experience at KCL has been amazing. I have learned numerous skills, created lifelong friendships and had several memorable experiences. I believe that my education at KCL is adequately training me to become a great doctor in the future.

Hostel:

I currently live in a rental apartment with a friend from college. We are only given accommodation halls in the first year and after that you find your own apartment. It is a 10 min walk from the campus and I currently pay doubt 700 pounds a month in rent.

Campus Life:

My overall experience was satisfactory- the course could have been better had it more opportunities of actual work experience through placements or internships etc

Hostel:

I lived near campus initially but then one of the buildings were a fire hazard and all studnets were relocated- it was the worse experience. The infrastructure and facilities of the old accomodation was amazing and it was just a 7-8 min walk to my campus which saved on travel costs. The new accomodation was average- the infrastructure wasnt good but it was centrally located so the location was an advantage to explore the city more.

Campus Life:

Well my department is really more fun as compared to others, in case of PhD students. We have a close knit group where everyone is welcome and we share an extremely cosmopolitan environment. We have lunch together, we go for walks together and we party every Friday together.

Hostel:

No. I live in an apartment that was provided to a friend of mine by the Indian government. So I never had to pay for anything and I lived with my friend in that 2BHK duplex apartment.

Hostel:

I live a few minutes from campus. Cost- 300 per week central location and a student area.

Location, Rank, Course are good.

Hostel:

The accommodation is great with most rooms being en-suite. My accommodation has a 24/7 reception, gym, shared kitchens, laundry rooms, and designated study areas. I pay 169 pounds per week and have a 40-week contract. The area is extremely safe. I have a single room but share my flat with others.

It's one of the top universities for Medicine in the UK. It's also one of the few universities that allow dissections (students dissecting bodies) rather than a prosection (a professor or clinician dissecting the body and students observe). The university is also in central London which was a great pro since I wanted to move to a city. This is also one of the few universities where students can start their medicine degree even if they're under 18, which was my case.

Hostel:

Off-campus accommodation, intercollegiate. Has some association with university in general but allows freedom away from university life, while still having a connection if needed or wanted.

Name and status of the university for the interest of future employment, course applied to me and my interests personally and especially in further years. Balance of coursework and exams works in my favour.

I found the opportunity to live in London exciting. I think that King's College London is a reputable institution. I have heard good reviews about the student experience, the teaching staff, and the extracurriculars.
