Kingston University- the Truth?

I don't see anything about left-wing groups on this site. But I do see witness statements about an assault and threats against his wife.

So, my firm uncondition offer for english lit and journalism lies with Kingston. This decision came after hearing lots of good things about the uni and the place itself, and after falling in love with everything on the open day...it seemed really cosmopoliton, with students who adored the course and lecturers.

However, over the past month I've been hearing really bad things about it- eg it's a rough/ghetto area, it's a badly taught uni, it's for stupid people etc...all completely different to my own impressions of the place, which granted were limited because I only spent a few hours there on the open day, but obviously this is all making me pretty nervous about going there in September now...

Does anyone go there, or know anyone who goes there, or even lives in the area, who could give an honest opinion of the place? Thanks

looooool kingston is NOT a rough area, it is a suburban place, very middle-class, its the only decent town outside of central london that is not ghetto. the houses here are huge and cost around 350k, everyone that has moved here, now want to live here because its such a beautiful place, but it is expensive. most people who go kingston UNI, come from other parts of london. the reason why people think its ghetto is because of the people, and the town in london they come from [other towns do not compare] but the location itself is the complete opposite. i thought it was ghetto before coming here as well. i was VERY mistaken lol. you will see if you choose to go kingston. you should spend a day in kingston and see how you like it, im sure you'll love it
