r/KCL

I kinda didn't know about the deadline 😅

Am I absolutely cooked? Is there any chance I'll get uni accoms??

Please help guys 🙏🏻

Does Kings ever accept someone who has one grade below the entry requirements but the other grades are higher than them?

So I am short one grade but got higher in the others than needed. It still says the course is open on the website but i’m worried. Can anyone advise? Thank you

Hi guys; I want to do a distance learning masters from Kcl due to my career and family circumstances. I want to know whether these are worth it or are totally scams?

I’ve talked to the uni reps and like it so far and they have confirmed my transcript or certificate will have no indication this was done online.

I want first hand experience and suggestions pls as this is an imp decision for me.

Hey everyone i've got offers from both KCL PPL and Warwick Law but undecided on which one to insure. Both are A*AA and was wondering which ones more lenient. KCL edges slightly in terms of rep but I also like the course more but just wanted to know if anyone has got in with AAA. On the UCAS website it says 80% got into PPL with AAA while 100% got into Warwick law with AAA (however it did say this included all law courses, many of which had lower reqs such as AAB), and PPL has a very small intake so would this mean they're likely to be more lenient?

I've currently got a medicine offer at Cardiff but unlikely to meet the grade requirements now. (I think I'll get A*A*B not AAA reqs). Before I was set on Medicine I actually really did enjoy learning about Biomed (the starting reason for med) so I'd enjoy the course. The problem is that for clearing I saw that both Cardiff and KCL typically offer it for clearing (ABB for KCL).

I'm not sure which to pick because firstly I would LOVE to live in London which would be a nice change from living in Cardiff my whole life (always been a must in my life to live there at some point in my life).

Secondly, I also just got a new job 2 weeks ago in Cardiff which is extremely flexible and pays quite well so I'd be guaranteed a part time job if I went to Cardiff.

Thirdly, KCL is more prestigious and I've been looking at the ideas of me doing Post grad med/ a masters/PhD/Going on to do Patent Law instead of Medicine. I personally wouldn't want to become a Biomedical Scientist. At the moment, the 3 jobs I'm interested in are : Researcher/Professor, Doctor, Patent Attorney.

So if anyone can offer me any advice as to which uni to pick PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO. (Maybe if you're at one of the unis you can help tell me more about Biomed there?)

I'm honestly so confused and stressed.

I'm joining King's this year, and they told me that my provisional degree certificate would be accepted. I also uploaded my final transcripts (all 10 semesters), and those are the final official transcripts from my university, they're not going to change.

Now Qualification Check is saying they need my final degree certificateand final transcripts before they can verify my application.

The problem is my university convocation isn't until 28 August,so I won't get the actual degree certificate until then. If I have to wait until August, it'll probably be way too late for my admission.

I've emailed King's because this seems to contradict what they told me earlier, but I'm freaking out a bit.

Has anyone been through this? Did Qualification Check eventually accept your provisional degree certificate, or did King's have to step in?

my\_qualifications are sufficient to meet the conditions btw-

Would really appreciate hearing from anyone who's dealt with this.

hii, so I’ve got a conditional offer from kcl for physics, and they ask for a 666 in my HL: math AA, physics and English B. I’ve got high hopes for math and English, but I think I might miss my physics grade by 1 point cuz paper 2 went horrible. On the other hand, I’m quite sure I might get a 7 in math, but then again, they’re still guesses. Is kcl lenient for physics??????

Hey all!

I'm making a TfL society at KCL if you're interested! we're going to do trips/events/talks/museums/pub crawls/ANYTHING, so if you're interested & you love tfl/trains/transport/anything under the sun, come check it out!

We probably won't be majorly active til August onwards to let everyone enjoy their summer.

Hi so I am headed to KCL but am just wary of london obviously being a pricey area. I will study at Guy's campus and was wondering how important it is to live near it, as I'd be having to take the tube.

I feel the biggest variable to living expenses is food, is there any advice on this matter? Does the uni provide services? I know my last one had a pantri which students could collect from for free

Guess what? KCL'S ONE OF THE FEW UNIS IN THE UK TO NOT HAVE A SKYDIVING SOC!

We're in the process of setting up a Skydiving Society at our uni - something that loads of unis across the UK already have. KCLSU has rejected our request to be ratified without citing a credible reason, so we're looking into running this society independently by partnering with brands, accredited dropzones, and skydiving societies from other universities. As we can't be a part of the Welcome Fair hosted by KCLSU, we're using Reddit as our way of reaching more students.

Whether you're a licensed skydiver who wants to meet other fun jumpers, wanna get licensed, or just wanna try it once as a tandem: if skydiving is something you've ever thought about, this is your chance.

BLUE SKIES BABY 🪂🔥🤘

I’d appreciate some advice from people working in investment banking.
My background:
BSc in Economics from a non-target Canadian university
Two investment banking internships at a small/mid-market investment bank in Paris
6-month internship at the IFC (World Bank Group), working on PPP and infrastructure projects
I’ve received an offer for the MA International Political Economy at King’s College London and I’m currently waiting for a decision from QMUL for the MSc Corporate Finance.
My long-term goal is to work in DCM, Sovereign Advisory, Public Sector Coverage or Syndication, but I’d like to start my career in investment banking in London or Paris.
Given my background and career goals, which programme would you choose? Would King’s stronger reputation and network outweigh the more technical Corporate Finance degree from QMUL, or would you recommend the finance master’s instead?

I got KAAS accomdation and i thought i had u til the end of today to book but it literally got declined. can i reverse it?

If all goes well, I'm sue to start a bachelors' at KCL this fall. I need a student visa and thus a CAS number, but I can't believe it's just as easy as waiting for it to arrive and hoping for the best. Are there any forms or requirements I'm unaware of, or am I just being paranoid?

Is anyone staying at angel lane? I booked a kaas en-suite room with the number ACE-908J. Can anyone tell me what these numbers mean and where the window will be facing? I’ve read that it can be quite noisy with the windows open but id really rather it not be 😭✌️

Anyone who knows about them

Anyone that's got KCL accommodation, is there any left (especially GDSA)? If there is some can u message me letting me know which ones and how much please!!!
