- The university is in central London, location is easily accessible.
- Fee is affordable and less comparable to other's Uni. However, the difference is not significant but still less fee.
- During my term campus was flooded with Asian students but still it was diverse and had a chance to interact with real international students.
Dislikes
- The infrastructure is really old and needs an upgrade.
- Career support is minimal, and no training and internships are available.
- The counselling team provide support but it's really insignificant.
Campus Life
Campus life is good, students are warm, responsive and interactive, infra is a bit old especially the buildings are really really old. The university doesn't organise much by itself but if you have an interest in activities you can approach cultural and people head they will definitely encourage your enthusiasm and arrange a gathering or event in response.
Accommodation
I lived in a private accommodation. It was a house share on a monthly basis my share was 600 GBP including taxes and my accommodation was 30-40 minutes away from my campus. FYI, students are exempted from all kinds of bills except for gas and electricity.

- I chose this university on main points like; Excellent website information about each and every course and course design for entire academic year Chat option with student ambassadors for the course so new comers could ask all the beginning questions Open information on previous successful placements and the student information Latest infrastructure with lots of lab / computing equipment Personal space for students who are working for group projects or working alone Long library hours (10am to 9pm) Online recorded classes and online appointments for ease of learning Lending laptops free of cost for students who can't afford laptops. Lots of fun activities and events Accepts only 50-60 students per year As a food science graduate its worth every penny studying at London metropolitan University. For those who are science based, there's excellent science Center for only LABS University is located right in front of tube station
- Course design, resources like computer and laptops. Lab equipment. Film making equipment (high end) studios etc. Polite lecturers. Polite student reps. Time to time change in course structure. Cheap printing cost
Dislikes
- I don't like the fact that it's in London. London is expensive to live ;) I don't have any more complaints May be the tuition fee is a bit high compared to others
Campus Life
There's another campus for sports, but the Holloway campus doesn't have any sports. We had an indoor cafe "the Rocket" Where drinks and alcohol are served but reasonably. We even had a big screening for the First Oscar award winner movie, RRR, hosted by the film and media department. We had rallies occasionally. We're proud to mention that the current London Mayor Mr. Sadiq Khan was once a London met student. We have communities for Indian students and LGBTQ, etc. We have student Union and union rep elections every year.
Accommodation
I used to live in a box room with a shared toilet, bathroom, and kitchen, and the rent then was 400/box room, including bills. Average rents Single room furnished with double bed:600-700GBP Single room/box room furnished single bed-400-500GBP STUDIOS(Bed, bath, W. C, Kitchenette) 1000-1200GBP 3BHK House/Flat- 200-2500 GBP 2BHK- 1400-2000GBP 1BHK- 1000-1500GBP

- As a student pursuing the Master's program in Food Science at London Metropolitan University, I have to say it is indeed a very satisfying experience. Our labs, comprising a wide array of workstations, feature state-of-the art equipment from industry partners such as Fisher et al. The lab is also frequented by researchers and industry academics for grant-related research and other scientific investigations. My course leader, Mr. Ghadduusi, is a veteran in the industry with considerable expertise in dairy spanning 20 years, now consulting for the UK Food Standards Agency. A gentleman, who is very affable, constantly motivating me to achieve the extraordinary.The classes and overall vibe is very positive, with colleagues from very different backgrounds and cultures, truly a beacon for multiculturism. Most of our faculty are very renowned, especially Mr. Abdi, principal head of the Institute of Food Science and Technology, nutritionist. My only downside with the university is the lack of co-curricular activities and high fees, so to speak. All in all, a solid 4/5.
- In my research for the best life-sciences university, I found London Met to the the perfect choice owing to its very highly experienced lab and faculty, very affable, always with an endearing smile. The lecture sessions are always full of energy , with excellent engagement from all students, always asking questions, which gets rectifies almost immediately. 4/5
Dislikes
- Lack of student clubs and other fraternities. There is no proper leadership in student programs and other cultural events. Also, sometimes the catering is also not upto expectations.

Our labs, comprising a wide array of workstations, feature state-of-the art equipment from industry partners such as Fisher et al. The lab is also frequented by researchers and industry academics for grant-related research and other scientific investigations. The overall vibe is very positive, albeit for some minor drawbacks. Drawbacks such as the lack of a proper student club, more so of a random dull occasion.
Accommodation
I live 18 kilometres away in North London, where rent is astronomically high at 420 GBP for single bed in a double room. The college is situated in Holloway Road, where student accomodations are very expensive, at almost 400 pounds per week. Its always advised to stay 45 minutes away, around two stations away for better rents and accessiblity.
Likes
- Admission criteria, course structure, Course fee and EMI facility
- It's process of exam it's different from general, it's more of Assessment based that helps you gather more knowledge, do lot of research, drilling on specific topic.
Dislikes
- I actually don't dislike anything about my university as it depends on the who wants to study and gain a degree, if all facilities of education are available then no complaint should be there
Campus Life
Different education club are available, all facilities like gym, swimming pool, library, computer lab, group discussion spots
Accommodation
It was during COVID so everything was online

Well, campus is good. They provides free wifi, cafeteria, sports club, gym for students. Atmosphere are friendly and good. Infrastructures are also good. They provide different 4 times of the zone. And it is very easy to find a classroom according to the zone area.
Accommodation
Well, to be honest i can say that students accommodation are good. They provide best rooms with all the facilities.. and rent is good. Provide foods. Also in the sense if security is best. I personally believe that closer to my friends and avoid transportation cost and also be present in time in the classroom.
