UCL is perfect for independent students who want to experience London life. The student community is incredibly diverse, and student-run societies and initiatives form lovely student communities.
However, the setup and administration of the University itself provide little support or welcome to students. Help is available for students who know how to go through the right channels – however navigating the university’s administrative system for any query or problem can be a nightmare. Lack of support can make the student experience isolating and lonely.
