mid uni honestly bad campus very small mid food yeah decent people, classrooms and facilities really good iwl, very rich uni iwl, but small uni compared to other richer unis, very good accommodation defo recommended to live in that

The university is one of the leading establishments in my programme and has given a good standard of education, especially considering the pandemic impacted face to face teaching. The extracurricular life is also good and I have enjoyed the societies

Fun but could be more inclusive for international students. Lots of extracurricular activities that you can get involved in. Lots of options of food on campus at the different cafes. Overall a pleasant experience, but accommodation could be modernised and cheaper.

I feel like since it’s a STEM university, you’re going to meet a lot of like minded people. Don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing wrong with that but after a while, it gets quite bland in terms of social life, etc since you’re going to be hanging around with medics, engineers, physicists, computing scientists or mathematicians. There isn’t that much variance in personalities and it can get boring.

I would recommend the university, there is diversity and culture in a place like London and imperial is at the heart of it. It also has plenty of clubs and societies to join that allow you to interact with many different people and cultures

I’m half way through my degree – so just finished 3rd year and it’s honestly been a great experience. I can’t speak for the university as a whole, so the other faculties, but the faculty of Medicine is just wonderful!

The course itself is tough, but there’s always so much support around. Whether that’s from faculty or student-run and led societies that are always dishing out free opening tutorials and more personal tutoring schemes.

The hospitals attached to the medical school are honestly world-class and some of the very best in the country, so that’s super exciting being taught by great lecturers/ doctors who are absolute experts in their field.

I think a major strength Imperial’s medical school has is its ability to adapt – with the COVID19 situation, they very quickly swapped over to providing us with incredible online teaching and introducing new platforms. They’ve also been very consistent with asking us for feedback, and actually using the feedback to improve things for us.

They really do take student wellbeing seriously as well. For instance, London is an incredibly expensive place to live in. I had an experience wherein I struggled to pay for rent on time, so I was directed by my personal tutor to the senior tutor for the year. Within 6hours of speaking to her and sending through a copy of my bank statement for the month, I was granted £1000 (which I didn’t have to pay back) to cover costs. This was an incredibly generous move from the medical school that helped me immensely and I appreciate it very much to this day.

The uni has offered me loads of job opportunities, which has been a saving grace! I started off blogging for the university as a fresher, this was very flexible and they paid £10 to do 2 posts a month- good exchange if you ask me! Additionally, joining schemes offer more opportunities at the uni. For instance, President’s Ambassadors offers signing up to give campus tours (available weekly), doing ticketing

The uni has its ups and downs, in certain areas I have enjoyed the teaching, such as tutorials, certain group sessions etc. Some of the teaching. Modules do seem a bit tedious and although they have to be done, could be made more interesting or shorter. In other areas, there isn’t enough focus on actually teaching, it’s more like here are some videos, here are some notes now learn and come back.
It does give good opportunities with clubs and shows and events to perform in, there is an endless possibility of clubs to join and this is to enjoy a lot.

I love my university – nothing is perfect but I’ve had the most amazing first year. The staff are inspired and the content is great (probably helps that I love my degree). South Ken is a beauty and I’m loving the London life. Extracurricular wise, there’s so much to do. Missing it so much!!!

– highly respected degree near par with Oxbridge, prime location, great employability (perhaps the best of all UK universities), the facilities are great and the opportunities are what makes this place stand out – there are so many opportunities for students to take their degree further and get more involved in their areas of interest and pursue them

Amazing university giving high quality of education while also enabling amazing social life. Had a great time here and made unforgettable memories. Would highly recommend university for prospecting medicine students.
