Computer Science

I want to study Computer Science/Software Engineering. As of now I only have an offer from Kent for Software Engineering. I want to try going through clearing to get into a university in London. However I am struggling to find information on what universities in London are good for Computer Science. The only University I had in mind was QMUL but all their computer related courses are closed for clearing.

Can someone please recommended me a university in London that has good reviews/is known to be a good university for people looking to o Computer Science.

Thank you.

Why London specifically? What A-level subjects did you take? What grades did you get? Without that information it's a bit hard to make reasonable suggestions.

Unfortunately the two strongest courses for CS in purely academic terms in London (Imperial and UCL) don't normally participate in clearing. You may want to explore courses more widely as a result, as there are plenty of stronger courses outside of London, for example Southampton (which may be in clearing, and also is somewhat close-ish to London if you did want easier access to the City).
