hey thereee, I see this post was 2 years ago, so im assuming ur a 2nd year student. can I ask which one u picked and why? because I am currently in the EXACT same situation between Kingston, East London and Greenwich, im not exactly considering Greenwich because I heard for architecture its not so exactly good, and to be honest east London seems better to Kingston in terms of what I want, its more technical and the degree is BS which I feel is more respected in the field however the downside to it is that the uni has a really baaad reputation, one of the worst int he UK in fact. Kingston is a better uni but for the course? do they also look at the technical side to architecture? despite that, Kingston is much further away from me, I live in central London meaning I must take 2 trains and a bus, whereas UEL is just 2 trains and im there! I appreciate any help very much!! thanks :smile:

Kingston university london has a good reputation as top 50 universities in the UK but university of East London is holding at 100 to 130 universities. as there's only 130 unis jn london that isn't quite good plus they tracking quality isn't that great too.
