Anyone doing compsci BSc at city university of london

I've got an unconditional offer for computer science at city, Greenwich and Kingston. This is my 2nd attempt at university as I flunked out my first year last year doing biomed in Manchester. And city is definitely the one I want to go to, due to its graduate prospects at 87% and it's the best one in London that doesn't ask for A-Levels in compsci or maths. But I have seen so many bad reviews about its compsci course, these reviews are all from 2016-2018 so l assume they've changed as their grad prospects then were at like 62% and now it's 87%. So l'm assuming it's gotten better, anyone doing it now? And how are you finding it?

Hi @Irresponsible

Congratulations on your offers!

I don't have any information about city, however I can answer any questions you have about Kingston and give you an insight of what it is like to live and study here.

I would really recommend going to open days for as many universities as you can, if you have not all ready, as you can get a good idea of what it is like as well as speaking to lecturers and current students. You can find out more about Kingston's open days on the website Open Days and events - Kingston University London

You will be based at Penrhyn Road which is like the main campus here at Kingston. It is just a 10 minute walk from the centre of Kingston, where there are lots of shops and places to eat. It is nice to go to a café and study or eat by the river. Lots of things are based at Penrhyn such as the student union, careers centre and the university gym. There is also a library, cafes and canteens.

I will leave some links to previous posts I have done about Kingston that you might feel useful.
