 " It's a nice uni, I like that they always have events and talks related to my area of study. A lot of my lecturers are pioneering in various area of research, and the fact that King's have outstanding connection with employees and third sector organisations definitely helped me make meaningful connections to inform my future career path. My lecturers were also very helpful. The only downside is that because the campuses are spread all over central London, it's hard to make meaningful connections with other students from other campuses. "

 " I wouldn't recommend the school or the program. The range of classes felt limited, and some of the professors weren't very engaging or supportive. Facilities could definitely be improved, and student support services didn't meet my expectations. The grading felt quite harsh considering the overall quality of the courses. Overall, it wasn't the experience I was hoping for. "
