" Kingston University is an extremely diverse school, so as a person of colour, you will definitely feel at home. The lecturers I had were experts in their topic, which made learning extremely interesting. The Town Hall is newly refurbished meaning the library is top notch! I would definitely recommend this university. "

" The academic staff are intelligent and supportive, but the campus lets it down - the student union doesn't get utilised and social spaces are limited other than the coffee shop and canteen. Some of the promises made in the catalog never came to fruition, such as having international speakers visit. The content of the course was basic and sometimes repetitive. I don't feel it challenged me, nor did I feel surrounded by passionate staff or students. "

" Close to public transport so easy to locate for commuter students as most Universities in London. It's also important to maintain a budget while studying in London and to avoid frequent unnecessary spending. Computing lecturers offer a lot of support and are mostly easy to contact through email, MS Teams and in their offices. "

" It is a very friendly university, the staff are really nice. There are some nice cafes that serve good food and accommodate dietary requirement but they aren’t open long. The library is very big and modern and is open 24/7 which is really nice but during the day it is always full! "
