Great Experience

LSE is a great place to create life-long connections and friends. There's a certain sense of community that is special to the university. The staff are hands-on and approachable. The facilities are modern and well-equipped.

International experience

During my first year at the university of Westminster I was able to come to three conclusions. The first one is that the university is a great place to connect to people from all around the world, is it also a great place to find friends and teachers that help you find yourself. Second conclusion is that it is not always so fun and beautiful, it is a hard path, where you learn how to be responsible, and that every action that you take for your future has a consequence. It is also a great place to learn from your mistakes and become a better person, you get in contact with different people that teach you many things. Third conclusion is that it is a very cozy place, I love my university because it has a nice and cozy vibe, it is a modern building but inside is very nice. I love how the institution tries to make its students feel comfortable inside.

Human Geography

The course and it's syllabus can be super interesting and fun but most of the lecturers are trash. They show no enthusiasm to teach and deliver lectures as if they were eulogies. Which is a shame, I feel the only thing holding back KU is the lack of enthusiasm.
