im also doing psychology but with a placement year 
I've heard guys campus and accoms near there so GDSA and SSA are quite good for social life. there's also guys bar in guys campus which is basically full of students. i don't know too much about other students who have done gap years but no matter which accom you choose there's always gonna be a good night/social life coz its london , always new opportunities to meet other people .
Hope this helps x

congrats on your offer! I'm just a little big worried because I haven't heard great things about KCL social life, but i'm hopeful!

oh swear , i watched a few yt vids and people said the night life is pretty decent just expensive lol, but i guess its harder coz kcl isn't a proper campus, its so separated so may be slightly harder to meet people. But if you wanna start tryna make friends, join kcl facebook groups and once you've booked your accom, there should be WhatsApp links for your accommodation. but honestly, London is great and you'll meet loads of people who've done gap years too! are you a local student?

ikrr like the only one that was within my budget was the orchard lisle one. And apparently ppl have been saying that SSA hasn't be giving out any more rooms in ages.

I saw Wolfson House appear two days ago but they went quite quickly and I've been checking every day since I gained access to the portal (28 April) and have not seen Stamford Street or Great Dover Street sadly. I think i'm going to go for Orchard Lisle even though it's a bit of trek to Strand and Waterloo campus

Neither are on there at the moment but think they are releasing them in batches now. GDSA hasn’t been on there since i got the invitation but i think they still have some to release.
