A great place to learn and grow.
Tips: Students should know that the college offers a supportive learning environment an active student life and good faculty members but it also expects you to be disciplined and manage your time well. Getting involved in clubs and activities really help you to grow.
Dislikes (Public transportation): The professors are genuinely knowledgeable and truly care students learning. They are very approachable we can talk to them after class or reach out anytime for doubts and guidance. Their teaching style is also unique they mix theory with real examples.

My university is very friendly and welcoming.
Tips: You should know your university, academic programs, key deadline, campus resources, student supports, student services, be aware of facilities like the swimming pool, career central, club, understand tuition scholarship and housing options. Knowing this helps your native campus life be effective and take full advantage of your university experience.
Dislikes (Part time work): Part-time work opportunities on or around campus are generally good but can vary based on the campus location filled with students and individuals. Many colleges offer on campus jobs such as a Library assistant, researcher or academic roller that are flexible with class schedules.

Strong academics, amazing student life and a diverse learning environment.
Tips: I came here after Covid, and I can see a difference between the Indian and London education systems. There was a cultural shift in my experience here, but it did positively influence my awareness, celebrations, and the impact I’m having here. Unfortunately, I didn't get any scholarships. The rejections I’ve encountered were definitely a part of the learning curve. Overall, my experience in London has been quite rewarding. I am satisfied with the course, coursework, knowledge, faculty, networking opportunities, and social events, including all the parties and gatherings.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty for my course were very accessible and approachable. The most unique and very interesting methodology that I find quite helpful was implementing whatever you study into real life scenarios right after you study with help of role play, group discussion. Diversity was very much so in play I had teachers from Belgium, France, USA and UAE.
Dislikes (Part time work): Considering the job market, you do have to hunt for the part-time and go to every extent and try every option available. You need to organize your day and work, and most of the time it works out quite well for people. The pay range is from minimum wage to 1-2 pounds or more.

My universe is very friendly when it comes to help students.
Tips: I think they should just know the basic knowledge about what a university offers to their international students such as academic programs, key deadlines, campus resources, student support, student services, rules, be aware of facilities like the library, career, Central and clubs scholarship, and even get some knowledge about accommodation, housing accommodation and etc.
Likes (Indian Food): I gave 5 stars rating to food option in my country of origin because of the incredible diversity, culture, richness and availability of both traditional and modern cuisine. One of the main reason for this high rate is the variety of regional food available is nice.
Dislikes (Public transportation): In London, public transport is really good. The only problem is that sometimes you can get very crowded and you might have to wait for half an hour for your bus or train. That's the only reason I don't like but rest, I think it's very good.

BSc (Hons) Computer Science (Web And Mobile Technologies) - Batch of 2024
4.5
Good university for pursuing BSc in CS.
Tips: I couldn't believe that everyone at this university was super friendly and easily approachable. I was surprised to receive a 3,000 scholarship while applying to the programme for my first year, so that's a nice plus. I'm happy here, although I can't say it's one of the top choices out there. This is a really good university if you are looking for a college that is in an area with city life. You will not find it here if you're looking for something with more greenery and a rural setting. If you want to attend a university where you will be helped as much as possible, this is the place for you. Every member of the staff, faculty, and administration is extremely dedicated to helping students thrive in their studies. The level of support you get from your tutor is something else. They are there for you at any time of day, any day of the week, no matter where you are. You can contact them for any questions or concerns you have about your modules. I'm sure I won't ever regret coming to this university.
Likes (Internships): They do help us or guide us 100% for our internship. When I was trying to get my internship, it was hard for me because, as a student who doesn't have any idea about the system going around in this country, it was hard. But the tutor really helped me to get one and guided me through it.
Dislikes (Value for money): The fees are a bit higher for international students, and local students pay only half as much for the same courses. I paid 12,700 GBP for my first year before scholarship, but it's increasing every year, which makes it a bit harder for me. Then one of my mates in the programme was paying way lessu20149,000 GBP per year. That disappoint me a lot.
