  • London is an expensive place so always first look for offers as their are many for students.
    |
  • Highly enjoyable. Making friends was easy but it would have been better if it was all in one building as we don't get to see most students as they're in different buildings.

  • I definitely think the experience here has benefited me in professing my professional career. I am thoroughly enjoying my time during the course, many thanks.
