Masters in Entrepreneurship (Financing) - Batch of 2026
3.7
Pretty campus and good lessons.
Tips: The campus is extremely vibrant and has some really scenic spots and lakes with a lot of greenery as well. In terms of academics, you will be expected to have an independent approach and a lot of things are assumed to be understood especially certain concepts and fundamentals so remember to be prepared before classes. Critical writing took me a while to grow comfortable with. Good for students.

MSc in Data Science and Advanced Computing - Batch of 2023
4.1
Friendly and engaging university.
Tips: Mainly, if you follow the process and instructions, everything will be fine, and self-analysis and approach are important in learning new cultures, and the approach towards study is important. Networking plays an important role abroad; you need to make friends, meet new people and interact with them in terms of any help or opportunities. There is a help desk and friendly staff are there to guide you if you have any queries.
Likes (Student Life): College life was much more engaging and interactive; you get enough time to submit your projects and engage in other cultural activities or clubs and other events but securing a job is tough; it entirely depends on your hard work and self-study and personal projects. There is inclusion and it's a big campus and you can able to access the student library and all software mostly for free and you find all types of food and people from different races as well and friendly too.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Move to the UK if you have enough experience in your current field, maybe around 5 years, if you are planning to study for a master's or want to get PR in the UK. Be skilful and be open-minded to learn new things and networking plays an important role in reaching out to companies' people as much as you can to get a sponsorship role. As there are new laws coming up in 2026 so be prepared to approach it strategically.

A university that gives you education, lovely environment and part time work options as well.
Tips: First, understand what you are going to study, so please look for all the modules in the course. Look for scholarships; there are plenty that you can avail yourself of based on qualifications. I am very satisfied. My faculty is very nice with proper understanding and lab practices.
Likes (Safety): Health and safety are top priorities in the UK, so everywhere, whether it's your class, accommodation or your workplace, they always take care of health and safety as a top priority. Even though it's safe to roam around at any time, there is a club on campus, so it is not required to go out to have fun.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Do not depend on the college. They will not help you with jobs. You need to work hard and find jobs in the current market. It's hard to find a job in your post-study work visa programme, which brings a challenge for individuals, as you need to get a job with a visa as well.

Welcoming, diverse and a fun student space.
Tips: Transition to UOR was super smooth, though there was a cultural difference for sure but the university hosted a lot of events and get togethers that made the university life sorted and very less hectic.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty is very appreciative, approachable and always answers questions and have a willingness to come up with new concepts and content in every other lecture, plus it is quite a diverse faculty as well so you don't feel overwhelmed and left out.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I rated 3 because while the UK has a lot of opportunities, staying back is very skill and course dependent. NHS and other skill shortage courses only gives settlements. In marketing, that is really less. Jobs are still there but very less sponsored jobs.

MSc in Data Science and Advanced Computing - Batch of 2024

Due to the recession in the UK, only a few companies are offering sponsorships.
Tips: Students should consider whether they can secure a job after graduation. Knowing a European language is a plus point. Check for the scholarship and find any universities offering it, and also the fees, whether it is the same everywhere. Also, investigate placement assistance and the campus environment.
Likes (Quality of faculty): They are nice and approachable. They make sure to understand us, guiding us in all aspects, and they did a very good job with the practicals. Though the British accent is tough to understand for Indians, they will use the tone, which can be easily understood by everyone.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Due to the recession in the UK, only a few companies are offering sponsorships. Packages are generally around 35,000, which is not enough for sponsorship. Keep this in mind if you plan to settle in the UK, as nationality and visa issues can sometimes be a problem.

University of Reading: Home to new experiences! Become bold and confident.
Tips: Be more open to new environments, cultures, and academic styles. Joining different clubs can make the transition easier. Received a scholarship of £4000 by applying to centenary and subject scholarships through the university website. The structure for the course is good but I wish it included more practical work throughout course.
Likes (Indian Food): Lot of options for Indian food, and Indian grocery stores are also available within a reasonable distance. Many restaurants offer Indian food and are also suitable for vegetarians. I was also lucky enough to be able to do part-time in an Indian restaurant as part of the front office.
Dislikes (Internships): Although the university publishes opportunities that are available for students, they are most often not for master’s students and very less opportunities for overseas students. And as an international student, you will not be able to apply for internships due to work permit restrictions.

Good college and value for money.
Tips: I have become a more responsible person once I reached here. In terms of knowledge, I can say I have gained practical experience in different domains which were new to me. I did get a scholarship of 3000 pounds and that was based on my IELTS score and I can say I am fully satisfied with it.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty is quite approachable. They give out their time when the students can actually go out to them and ask queries. Diversity in teaching style and methodology is present as various methods are taught for the same subject and it enhances our knowledge.
Dislikes (Internships): In terms of applying for the internships, the help is given by the university. Also Reading being closer to London gives the opportunity to apply for jobs in a wider range of companies and in various domains. Some internships are indeed present in the field of study.

Hardships of the International students in the UK.
Tips: Coming to the UK at this time of recession and spending so much money on university fees is not so worth it. But if money is not a factor for you to worry about and you want to learn more then UOR is great. If you are lucky you might get a job by trying hard. But then the salaries they offer you might not be enough for your monthly survival or what we at least expect to get after completing a degree and spending tons of money.
Dislikes (Indian Food): It is not so easy to find a suitable job in the UK as a graduate even for an entry-level job they expect you to have experience for 3 years and if you find a job then you will need a sponsorship from this company to stay here which is another big challenge.

Genuine Review of my experience
Tips: You can expect the best possible university experience. But you should be prepared to work hard and be independent and self-reliant. Friendly atmosphere, great faculty, excellent laboratory equipment, Great Modules, top class Library, workshops and practical work.
Likes (Public transportation): Public Transportation in Reading is superb. Cheap and readily available. 24/7 bus service to all parts of reading town. There is a bus which will directly take you to the Campus. You will get a bus every 15 minds. You can get bus pass for a week or monthly at affordable price.
Dislikes (Internships): The are guidance available. But there is no placement cell for my department. There are no internships available for students who passed out. That's one issue. We often get job and career fares, but they mostly help us to interact with people from different companies. But they don't really hire you.

Good exposure and growth.
Tips: After spending a year in London, I realised the real meaning of exposure. I was glad and felt privileged that I got to experience this wonderful city. I could not avail any scholarships as the application deadline was over but there is definitely a scope for everyone to receive a scholarship. I am extremely satisfied with the experience that I had in college. It offered me the latest knowledge in my chosen field.
Likes (Indian Food): There were several types of restaurants in almost all corners of the city. King's College London is located in the heart of London and has ample of restaurants offering all types of cuisines. There is a place called Sagar, which offers amazing veg Indian food.
Dislikes (Internships): The college only organised a few work fairs at the beginning of the session. There was little to no organisation of the student communication channel so that all students from the same classroom can get to know each other. There are no on-campus corporate internships available and all students have to search for opportunities off campus.

Small campus but great student life.
Tips: I learnt what real exposure means after coming to King’s College London. I changed completely after studying for just a year. I could not avail of any scholarships. I am extremely satisfied with the quality of life and education King’s offers. The professors are extremely helpful and are always willing to guide students to the fullest. The lecture and class pattern is arranged such that students get enough time to prepare and learn on their own. The flipped classroom approach (online + offline) is something that didn’t sound good at first but the importance of it came into light later in the year.
Likes (Student Life): The college although it has a small campus size but offers a large number of club activities including sports and fitness, cultural and heritage and other forms of arts. There are several lounging spaces throughout the campus and the facilities are top notch with student mental health in mind.
Dislikes (Part time work): Work fairs and part time centric fairs were only held during the start of the session and then there were minimal to no updates on this topic. Even during these work fairs, companies explained about the roles and offered goodies but the application was still online with no real opportunity highlighted.

Select the course you are interested in, rather than just the college name.
Tips: The quality of your experience largely depends on the course you adopt or take up. Be sure to vet the contents of the course and also know of your faculty members teaching here before investing. The institution is renowned for Competition law and other allied specialities. Do your homework thoroughly before investing.
Likes (Internships): Guidance is available on the careers page of the website, and the alumni network is helpful. The alumni base on LinkedIn is also very helpful in guiding one in the application forms as to the kind of answers and responses that should be given in the application forms for an internship to materials.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The label of any university is not sufficient - work experience and individual merit matter very much. Will strongly recommend applying for internships in the UK alongside coursework, and also, if you are pursuing a Master's, then gaining some relevant work experience in your home jurisdiction first.

A great global exposure with best faculty and university.
Tips: I have seen major changes in my personality since I joined this course a year ago. From becoming a multi-tasker to widening my perspective towards cultures and people from all around the world, this growth has been a great blessing. I was not awarded any scholarship. I had the most supportive, helpful, intelligent and fun professors in my course. Made the subject matter super easy and they all had great knowledge of their subject. They encouraged doubts and would sit with you till they were all cleared. The course was structured to get the best out of students. The post-study job market is a bit harsh and it would be great if the college took more initiative in having placements for the students. Overall, I am 100% satisfied with the course, university and the country.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): If you have a great profile before your Master's - for example, 1-2 years of relevant work experience, professional degrees, etc. - then your chances of getting a post-study job are much better compared to someone going for their Master's right after undergraduate. The post-study job market is very competitive, rewarding only the best candidates.

BSc Physics - Batch of 2025

King's College London does not provide much internship opportunities.
Tips: There was not much of a cultural shift. Coming from a metropolitan city, like Delhi, to another metropolitan didn't seem like much of a difference. The only thing that is needed to get used to the city is the cost of living. Takes about a month or so to adjust to the cost of daily expenses. I did not get any scholarships as I am not eligible for any. Being an Indian male studying Physics doesn't really suit the majority of scholarships at King's. The teaching faculty is generally good but the admin staff is not that great for our department. They will always find a way to make you run around to get basic things like your marks or even exam papers. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experiences here.
Likes (Public transportation): Covent Garden and Holborn station are within walking distance of campus, but using public transportation can quickly become expensive if you exceed your budget. Buses are a good alternative, but convenience depends on where you live and the route you travel. The tube is definitely faster.
Dislikes (Internships): There is not much support from the university. Generally, one has to be part of the relevant student groups/societies to get an idea of how the internship process works in the field of choice. The university has some help available to review CVs/Cover Letters and a practice interview round.

The transition to London helped me gain social skills and boost confidence.
Tips: London can be incredibly expensive. However, there are several ways to find affordable ways of living as a student so ensure you do your research before moving to London. KCL and London in general are very metropolitan so there are countless cultures and ethnicities to mingle with, making it smooth and quite enjoyable. For scholarships, it's quite difficult to avail of any as most are offered to Masters students and the UK very rarely offers scholarships for international students. However, there are different ways to avail of bursaries depending on your university/course. Students should ensure they do extensive research as they tend to be hidden.
Likes (Public transportation): London's public transport is world-renowned, very well-connected, and also very easy to navigate and understand. However, it does tend to be quite expensive if you live far from the city centre. There are buses, the London Underground and the London Overground. Most train services end at night but on the weekend, there are night tubes that run late into the night so it's possible to get home after night out.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): It is quite difficult to secure a job if you're not studying for a highly-value degree. Visa sponsorship is quite easy to secure, especially at bigger firms. Again, depending on the major studied, salaries and roles can range from impossible to secure to incredible remunerative.

One of the financial hubs in the world does help you to transform.
Tips: King's College provides you with various opportunities to showcase your talent. I did transition after coming here both academically and personally. I did not get any scholarships but the college does provide them and other financial aid is available as well.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty here is really qualified with much knowledge and expertise. Most of them work in the banking and finance fields simultaneously. Friendly, helpful and very much approachable if needed. Teaching methods are also very up-to-date and provide access to financial software such as Bloomberg, Stata and MATLAB.
Dislikes (Value for money): Being an international student, 40 Lakhs of tuition fees for one year of Masters degree plus living expenses in London, with no job placement and security, the value for money is not justified. Part-time work hours for students are also very restricted.

Tips: The process of shifting is quite well but learn to find all the contacts needed beforehand to solve issues. Contact people and don't hesitate. Find fixed places to eat quickly. Join forums or clubs etc. in case you will feel lonely really fast even if you have friends. Talk to everyone a little and branch out.
Likes (Indian Food): I prefer cooking myself but there are still many Indian food options in London. Most of them are quite well made as well. As for pricing, it's cheaper if you go to the restaurant and not if you order at home. Try to find places with student discounts because they have many of those.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): It has quite a direct way of immigration if you're a student. There's the graduate visa option for now which can give you time to search for jobs etc. There are also a lot of immigrants which shows it's not exactly impossible. The only issue is the current government which may come out with new policies making it tough.

Tips: The city is good. The course has a great structure and the university has a lot of resources. The degree is tough but rewarding. There are a lot of opportunities for internships/placements. Living in London is a great experience (barring the slight safety problems).
Likes (Public transportation): London has very accessible public transport. Between the tube, overground, national express, bus, night buses and walking, I think it's possible to get anywhere in London. As a student, you also get a discount on public transport. It's available most times of the day and is very convenient to use.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): It's possible to get permanent immigration, but it's difficult to get a sponsorship. It truly depends on what course you're doing and what market you're applying for jobs in. If I had the chance I would consider permanently migrating to the UK for sure. The job prospects and academic potential here are far higher than my country of origin.

Tips: It is a top university and one of the best in the UK. Its campuses are at the heart of London, with so many sites and attractions nearby. However, this does mean the university is not for everyone as it is a very busy and fast-paced environment in London.
Likes (Quality of faculty): King's College London has amazing faculty members for all different departments. It also has several university campuses and student halls across London. The university has top-end lecture halls, laboratories and sports facilities. It has unarguably the best university campuses in London compared to other London universities.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Immigration lawns are very strict at the moment in the UK. Difficult to find jobs in the UK as a whole but is slightly easier to find jobs in London. This does however mean jobs, especially graduate jobs in London are very competitive. To get more immigration information please refer to the UK government website.

Once in a lifetime opportunity to study here.
Tips: One of the standout features of this university is the extensive array of societies. Whether one's passion lies in arts, sciences, sports or social causes there is a society for everyone. The university also provides ample opportunities for students to work whilst studying so they can develop their professional skills gain valuable experience and manage their finances effectively all while pursuing their academic endeavours.
Likes (Value for money): Once-in-a-lifetime experience. You will not regret it. It is a little expensive compared to other areas but there is a lot to see and explore while studying at university. There are also a lot of universities in London so you get the chance to network with people from different courses backgrounds and beliefs.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Not many jobs are available for post-graduates, but if you do get one they are quite good in terms of work culture and salary. I am not too sure about this topic as I am not a post-graduate, but there are quite a few people who are without a graduate scheme and some people who have secured amazing graduate schemes.

Amazing life at King's College London, UK
Tips: One of the best universities to get into. Also the life in London is amazing. The connectivity of public transport is something which is commendable. The college is in the heart of the city and has almost every facility available for students. The teachers are well experienced and helpful.
Likes (Student Life): Life at KCL is simply amazing. There are several things going on at any given point in time to keep the students engaged. The campus is clean and very near to the tube stations making it very convenient for the students to walk from tube to the college.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): The faculty are very interactive and help out with any problems that students have. They have designed a very engaging way of studying and making the students understand the root of everything. For the final dissertation, the faculty will help you with everything to make it easier for you to research.

I personally feel King's college is among the top in U.K.
Tips: I suggest to make your profile strong as getting an offer from King's college is quite tough. After getting admitted, the next steps will be to get your email address and complete the online enrolment and campus registration. Kings will send you details about the next step so please make sure your contact details and UGAS are updated.

Great placement opportunities and a diverse learning environment.
Tips: I have been very happy with the job I got after attending this college. It was pretty easy to find a placement here. Not only that, but I enjoyed the job as well. I think the college has a lot to offer, including great opportunities. This college is very well-run compared to other campuses. It's different here—you don't face any kind of ragging or anything else, plus you get easy placement in various national and multinational companies.

The college is good but there is a bit of placement issue.
Tips: My friends and colleagues have all graduated from King’s College London. It has a good placement record and is the best college for our future. There are many groups in the college for different problems, like social discrimination and ragging, that allow us to resolve issues, give people more work, and improve the security solution. There is a little bit of an issue with the placement in the college. It has something to do with the companies that have been coming to our campus. There are many, but they only hire students who have higher qualifications or abilities. That’s why you might encounter a few issues while getting placed. By applying to and completing the admission process, we can confirm our enrollment there, begin our studies, and work toward a degree.

King's College London is expensive but worth it.
Tips: The courses are challenging so you have to work hard. Make sure you attend classes regularly. You'll spend a lot of time at the library so you need to learn how to manage your time and stay focused. The professors are great, the curriculum is amazing, and the people are very helpful. London life is amazing, and exploring the city was a lot of fun. The people are really nice, and you feel at home. Everything is very systematic, so you will have a lot of fun.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): The job market is currently very bad in the UK and immigrants are not being considered for employment. With the change in government it has become even more difficult for immigrants to find employment. Graduate jobs do not pay well so it is difficult to save money. However, overall my experience at KCL was great.

King's College London- Pre-planning and living in London Central.
Tips: There are no scholarships at King's. London is much more expensive than you think. The food is very bland, so you should know how to cook. The courses are highly competitive, and almost half of my class failed their first and second attempts. So, make sure you are here to study, because it will be a major factor moving forward. Choose your accommodations wisely. Options are university accommodations, off-campus shared houses near the university making travel costs almost zero but rent is too high as it is central London or off-campus accommodations that are farther away but less expensive.
Likes (Public transportation): I lived in central London near Borough station, and could walk to my university. However, the busses and tubes were equally convenient. Now that I live in the outskirts, I've noticed that there is public transportation to every corner of the city. In other cities, like Cardiff, where my friend lives, travel is limited to trains and occasional busses. London's public transportation is so good that you don't realize how good it is until you leave the city.
Dislikes (Value for money): I paid around 30 Lakhs INR, which I feel wasn't worth it because I really had to do most of the work myself and I also ended up writing the wrong exam, ultimately making me lose my distinction which isn't something I would expect when I pay so much for a university.
