The university, though relatively compact, has great facilities for students to study and research. The career services of Imperial is excellent, and the organisation of the experience was clear and easy to understand.

Imperial College is a world renowned university and is known for its cutting edge research. The main campus located in South Kensington is an incredible location close to some of London's top tourist attractions including museums such as the Victoria and Albert museum and the Natural History Museum. As an imperial student you get the opportunity to graduate in the infamous Royal Albert Hall, which is a very exciting experience. The university is known for its excellence in teaching. Aside from academics, Imperial College has over 300 clubs and societies and has an excellent student union who are very supportive.

While not the most beautiful campus around, Imperial College provides good student support in terms of: careers services (such as CV checks & career advice), international student support, research help (from departmental librarians) and more. The facilities are pretty neat, with a large central library and well-equipped computer labs with fast computers. Social-wise, there is a lot going on in Imperial College, with many student clubs and student-led events.

I am really glad to be part of this university. The facilities are great and there are plenty of events organised for students, from talks to networking events. Students are given career talks during their induction weeks and career advice is available throughout the year. There are plenty of ways for international students to feel included and get to know London

Great university academically! You learn slots nd gain a lot of skills that are very applicable to your relevant work industry which means getting jobs is much easier and more doors/opportunities are open as an imperial student. But when it comes to lifestyle not so much a healthy lifestyle. A lot of people I know personally go through challenging depression moments and different mental health break downs due to the sheer pressure and stress. It's getting better as the university is getting more aware but still more needs to be done.

Very good university. Staff and facilitate are are all outstanding. Of course there is a high workload, but i believe that is necessary to grow great minds. The location is expensive, but it is so convenient being in central London. There is always stuff going on a few tube stops away.

Campus is very friendly and lots of places to eat. However the food is very expensive. Gym is very cheap (£30 for the whole year). Lots of careers talks and on campus opportunities to network with future employees. I am part of a few discussion groups and start ups surrounding the topic of my degree.

This university is great. You’ll surely have a great future ahead through this university. It has a beautiful campus with a great infrastructure. I’m graduated from this unniversity and I had a wonderful experience over here.

Facilities are tiny, teaching is unorganized. False promises with course content. Too many students for the given amount of teachers. Canteen food is terrible, and they caused 200 people to have food poisoning.

Lovely campus in South Kensington surrounded by museums and cafes, Harrods is literally a 10 minute walk away. Library is open 24 hours a day and lots of computers and room available, but can get busy during exam season. In terms of the course, I believe that Imperial is more concerned with results than the welfare of their students...felt very isolated at times and help on my course was pretty hard to find! Plus the guys in halls who are meant to help freshers fit in really did not do that...joining in on harmful gossip and ‘banter’ rather than doing their job and protecting those they should have been looking after.

Imperial is a fantastic university for medicine. I love that it is so central in London and that the medical school is associated with lots of hospitals around the city. The teachers and medical staff are at the top of their fields, and there is amazing research done at the university. The only downfall I see is that the medical school can be quite disorganised and difficult to navigate, mainly because it is made up by so many parts. However, overall, Imperial provides incredible opportunities to learn and grow, all within London and internationally.

I had such a great last 3 years at Imperial college London. The campus is based in a South Kensington, so just a stone's throw away from all the fabulous London museums (Natural History museum, Science museum, Victoria and Albert museum).

Essentially, both myself and all my friends only come here for the name and the prestige that’s associated with it. Yes some of the professors are renowned but alot of them care about their research more than actual teaching their students. The pros definitely are the amount of funding we get which can be seen in the quality of our equipment, opportunities available, the fact that us in the school of medicine all get ipads and the bursary the home students get.

A highly-ranked university which could do a lot more to live up to its reputation including supporting students better during stressful times, better funding tor the Union so that they can invest in their clubs and societies, cheaper food on campus and more study spaces (although they are renovating the library). Very good on careers/professional support however.

Course covers a huge amount of material and some parts are well taught. Others not so well. The library building does not look especially nice but has enough copies of text books.

The campus is in a brilliant location and well spaced out. The facilities provided on my course are upcoming and up to date. However, sometimes feel like the faculty of our course are against the students. Being the first year of the course, feels slightly unorganised and haphazard sometimes.
