"King's is home to six Medical Research Council centres and is a founding member of the King's Health Partners academic health sciences centre, Francis Crick Institute and MedCity."
"King's College London holds a Student Visa license issued by UKVI that allows to bring overseas students into the UK to study."
Cons:
"Would give 0 stars if I could. Admissions team is downright rude and cruel, allowing UCAS to auto reject almost everyone on the deadline instead of letting us know before so we could get on planning our lives."
"literally the worst university to be an applicant for in the UK- no communication for over six months, no idea as to whether or not you meet criteria for interview."
"Sky-high fees for international students but insufficient administrative staff to process the necessary visa paperwork in a timely fashion."
"The only thing is that the admin is absolutely terrible. Confusing timetables that sometimes don't match real classes."
"The administration process during the degree is also abominable."
"Some other departments are an admin nightmare."
"Was on call to student services for over 1 hour 5 minutes because they were clearly not bothered to pick up."
Academic Experience
Pros:
"During my studies at the Strand Building Campus i was thrilled, excited and interested in the experience i had."
"Syllabus of this institution is of world-class standard and learning is conducted by a deep interactive system."
"The law department was well organised."
"beautiful campuses and almost all of them in the city centre. staff and students are helpful."
"I had some of the best lectures."
"The lecturers are really qualified and good at what they do."
"The teachers are renowned, many of whom have published books & theses."
Cons:
"The mental health team was awful and my experience with 'therapist' was awful too."
"Don't believe this kind of UK education. It's one kind of digital trap for Int. students."
"Library refurbishments, fancy, yet broken IT systems will not buy anyone quality in teaching or personal and professional development."
"Uncomfortable environment for students of colour."
"Professors only read slides and follow western mainstream scholars."
"The IT systems are failing and a joke even on the staff level."
"bad academic culture, unreasonable Teaching fellows though the course contents are reasonable."
Campus and Facilities
Pros:
"King's has five campuses: its historic Strand Campus in central London, three other Thames-side campuses (Guy's, St Thomas' and Waterloo) nearby and one in Denmark Hill in south London."
"Such a beautiful campus! I got a bit lost at one point and a kind member of staff stopped what they were doing to help me."

"The library was great."
"Infrastructure is decent."
"The place has been transformed since then and it is now quite beautiful."
"Maughan Library is a real treasure."
Cons:
"There is this Instagram account followed by the uni called @kingscollegeloldon who often posts things discriminatory towards Chinese people."
"The security/reception team at the entrances of all campuses (the men in suits) are the most unpleasant and unhelpful public-facing team I have seen in my life."
"Came for a course on R in September and we (the organiser and all the students) had so many problems getting a stable internet connection in the PCs room."
"We never have classes (missed 3/4 of my course)."
"The place is very old and looks like less maintenance been carried over the years to upgrade & modernize the College."
"Cafe and tuck shop both are expensive."
"The College is open to tourists, local visitors and students and this is how they make extra money."
