It's difficult to secure sponsorships.
Tips: There is nothing in particular you should know about this university. The university is amazing and has historical significance and the faculty is great. Try to get accommodation outside the ones given by the college since the college ones are very expensive. There is no cultural shift; it depends on how outgoing a person you are and the best way to get yourself in the limelight and even to get a job, you need to be socially available and engage in conversation with people.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty was amazing, they are really caring and try to solve the issues you have regarding a particular topic as much as possible. State of the art tech and amazing libraries to help students upskill in their academics, and help you in whichever way possible.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Given the current scenario of the UK job market it's really difficult to get a sponsorship in the UK. What students generally do is take a PSW and try to get jobs. Studying abroad should be taken as a qualification to upskill yourself. For international students studying in the top universities in the UK the chances of getting a sponsorship are close to 10-15%, so keep that in mind and try to manage studies and applications for jobs at the same time.

Great course, great city, and solid experience overall.
Tips: The transition was fairly smooth. King's is in central London so the cohort is very international, which makes it easier to settle in. The bigger adjustment is London itself rather than the university. Academically, the M.Sc. Data Science movies fast so time management matters from week one.
Likes (Post study jobs): From my experience, about 50% companies I got interviews from had a sponsorship license and were willing to sponsor at the end of my graduate visa. Job roles initially can be structured as contacts with the option to extend or change to convert to permanent. On average, a graduate's salary ranges from 30,000 to 40,000 annually.
Dislikes (Value for money): More expensive than some colleges, like the University of Birmingham or University College London, offering the same course, especially for international students. On top of being in London which is more expensive than the rest of the UK by about 40%, the course is more expensive for no reason.

They don't provide placement, only guidance.
Tips: I am really satisfied with my course, it is preparing me for the real world jobs in my field. The cultural differences are there, it takes some time to adjust but making friends being social and having companions going through something similar helps the process.
Likes (Post study jobs): For my course there are plenty of jobs available in the UK.
It's about making your own connections. Use LinkedIn and meet people at various job fairs, etc. To make connections. That helps mostly. It is also a good practice to keep in touch with alumni of the course and ask them about how they find jobs, what are the steps they took and what kind of connections they made.
Dislikes (Internships): There is plenty of guidance available, although they do not give placements as it's done in India. There are placement blocks, etc. which help with navigating what kind of jobs you're looking for and providing you with help on how to go about it and how to make the right connections as well as achievable goal setting.

A transformative and globally enriching experience.
Tips: Finding finance internships was tough but the school's really good about helping with jobs. You can meet with faculty one-on-one for your resume, applications and interview prep. King's even has internships during the summer after the second term. They have extra stuff like investment funds and 20 free courses, workshops, and stuff. How much you get out of it really depends on how much you put in.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Faculty is extremely approachable and helpful. They teach well and respond quickly to emails. They taught us further by making smaller groups of 15-20 people for tutorials where personal attention is given. They taught using the latest technology and good practical knowledge. The teaching faculty is diverse; I have seen teachers from most nationalities across Europe and there were Indian teachers as well.

Different teaching methodology and practical oriented.
Tips: KCL is a premier college. The teaching there is very action oriented and practical in nature at least as was the case in my course. The professors treat you with respect and each student is appointed a tutor who helps not only with any academic issue you might be facing but also with any emotional issues you might have. They are very supportive. Learning is fast-paced and you will not have plenty of time to do much else during the Master's courses. I would suggest not going there with an expectation of finding a job as there is a job crisis and it's particularly bad for immigrants trying to find a permanent position and the careers team at the university is of very little help. Just come with the expectation to study and learn and the environment of London will sweep you away. It's a very enriching experience.
Likes (Safety): Since the university was in Central London, the safety was immaculate. My student accommodation was in Central London as well. Just if you make sure not to venture into shady areas outside of zone 3 and there will be no issues and I roamed the street alone even very late in the night and did not feel unsafe at all.
