Disadvantages: Strand campus is like a rabbit warren, accomodation is pricey,

...part of the University of London it also gives students access to the facilities of UCL and LSE to name but the nearest. The staff I have come into contact with have been friendly and helpful and all have impressive CVs and a wide range of experience. The library is an amazing building and is only down the road, it is quiet and jam packed with books you'll need and books which seem so random it's curious as to who reads them! There has just been ... Read review

Advantages: In London, Excellent Reputation
Disadvantages: Strand Campus, Expensive, Poor Halls

I was at Kings last year and decided to leave. Despite this I still have some fond memories and can appreciate some of its good points. Firstly the reason I chose it, its excellent reputation...when you tell people you're at Kings most are fairly impressed, which is always a nice feeling. However I realised later on that this is not the best reason to pick a Uni or stay at it. Kings has some great facilities unfortunately most are located on the ... Read review

...there couldn't be a better London location, overlooking the river. Its fantastic. The library is THE best place to work. It is the former Public Records Office and is a beautiful building which has been transformed inside into a state of the art library. I studied history which King's has a great reputation for.

Advantages: High standard of educated and great location
Disadvantages: Expensive around London

I have been studying Business Management at Kings college at the Waterloo campus and have had an excellent experience there. Located on the Southbank it is located in a vibrant area yet quieter than it is north of the river. There is plenty to do around the area and lots of bars to go to after a hard day of education! The standard of learning at Kings is great and truly feel as if I have learnt soo much during my time at Kings. The staff are ... Read review

Disadvantages: sometimes too packed and busy

...located in the heart of London and it is really busy and full of lively crowds. I was impressed and I still am by the wide range and the large variety of courses available.

Everyone is so friendly and helpful, this always makes you feel safe and important. ... Read review

Advantages: Good teaching staff
Disadvantages: All the facilities

Kings College is labelled as one of the best Universities Ever. Not true in my experience. Kings College has a shockingly bad library. A shockingly bad catering company and a bar that really is not a bar. The library at the Waterloo Bridge Road Campus is short of books, short of staff, short of a workable library information system, but very high on fines. It is only open from 9.30 to 5.30 weekdays during the summer holidays, even though essays are ... Read review
