Tell us about your overall university experience so far.

It is only my first year at Imperial, but I am enjoy my time very much in the university and city of London. I have found the course and facilities at Imperial to be of a very good quality and have made my experience a good one. Although their a couple of downsides to the university, firstly the student union is very poor and have very few events on and is not very good for socialising. Secondly the accommodation is very expensive and far away. Putting that aside overall it is a fantastic university to attend and study in. My advice to anyone looking to get a place here is to work hard and do some research on your course to impress at an interview.

I am having a great experience studying at imperial. I have been made to work very hard and I also have to study quite often on a Saturday as well, which I do not mind as Imperial is one of the best universities in the world and the subjects they are covering are perfect for my development. I love living in London, but do not get much time to go out in the city as the course is very demanding and requires me to work on it 6 days a week to achieve the top grades. My advice to people considering applying to Imperial is, be prepared to work very hard, but it is worth it as they have a lot of links to good companies to get work experience with or a job when you finish.

Imperial College London

MSc Innovation, Entrepreneurship and Management

It has been an interesting year so far at Imperial. I find the course and lectures really good as they are filmed so you can watch them back afterwards to make sure you did not miss anything, which I think is a great use of technology. I am a big fan of London and have found the location of the University to be very inspiring as it is in the centre of London. I was previously at Kings London University and I think Imperial College is a lot better course and lectures, and also facility wise. My only advice to anyone looking to get a place at the University is to do your research on the subject and think of an area you are interested in you could talk about and impress and interviewers with, also attend the open days so you know a bit about the uni for when you speak to them.

Imperial College London

Electrical & Electronic Engineering - BEng (Hons)

University rating (4)

Studying engineering at Imperial college has been a great experience, the university has invested considerable amounts of money into the laboratories, library and lecture theatres which is clear to see. I find the lectures to be very informative and also the tutors are really passionate about the subject which is great to see. The university has amazing labs which have been really helpful to my research. I am also involved with a number of interesting societies at the University which has been a great way to meet new people and socialise. The main one I am working with is a society where we develop mobile phone applications and we are looking to release one for the Iphone very soon, it has been a great extra curricular project and really really fun to work on. The only downside to the University is the accommodation it is very expensive for what it is and also It is quite far away from where my campus is, so I have to spend a lot of extra money on travel.

Imperial College London

Applied Mathematics MSc

Tell us about your overall university experience so far.

I have had a fantastic time so far at Imperial College, the facilities, lectures, course and campus are all top quality and have made my experience of living and studying in London really great. The tutors are also always available to answer any questions that I have and offer a lot of one on one time to help you with every aspect of the course and material being taught. The only downside to Imperial is that the accommodation is expensive in first year and also far away from the main campus, so I have a long commute into University. On the plus side the facilities such as the library and computer rooms are really good and have aided my studies a lot. I also love being situated in the centre of London and right next to the Albert Hall, Science Museum and Natural History Museum, its a very happening area of London.

Tell us about your overall university experience so far.

I am very happy with my choice of studying at Imperial College. I especially enjoy how the modules are being taught and how the lectures stimulate you to really think about the subject. The facilities are fantastic at Imperial from the computer rooms to the library and there is even a great free gym on campus. I really enjoy being in the heart of London as well as it is such an exciting city to live and study in. If you are looking to get a place at Imperial my suggestion is you work really hard and make sure you know your subject inside out when you attend the interview.

Uni is ok so far. I would say to work hard, because there is a lot of work, and the structure is completely different to school. You have bigger classes and need to approach lecturers yourself if you want any help. Also make sure you socialise and make friends. Most importantly, work hard at A Levels

Uni is ok so far. Just make sure you take your A Levels seriously and do well to get into uni, but also your 1st Year at uni is primarily based on what you should have learnt during your A Levels.

Uni is tough, especially in 3rd year, but overall it's good. Just make sure you work hard from the beginning and make sure you don't leave work until the last minute. Also make sure you enjoy your 1st year.
