- I went after covid so still a lot of quarantine and isolation
- I was also homesick for a while
- The University of East London has a 91% employability rate (could vary). It took me a while to land a job I wanted and sometimes I think I still don't have my dream job, but everyone has a different journey. Salary range also differs on different factors, like have you applied for a PSW? Where are you working and what is your field of expertise?

- UEL have very Big campus with car parking and charging station inside the campus. And it's near by riverside because of that surroundings will be always ambient.
- Student HUB is very helpful specifically for the international student. We have timing for the hub from morning to evening all weekdays which is really helpful to solve the queries regarding fees payment, opening banking account in UK, getting help to apply for student letter, concession on rail card and many more things.
- Inside the college campus getting Costa coffee, Starbucks, Restaurants and Food vending machine, this all things getting in campus is quite reliable for the student to get a variety of food, coffee and snacks inside the campus on reasonable price with good quality of food.
Dislikes
- Teaching way of professor is not the interactive, they mostly open the PPT and form that they read and suggest to watch the YouTube videos for more detail information and knowledge.
- There is no jain food in the whole college campus, so it's quite difficult for the people who are jain, there is no other option for jain people instead of cooking and bringing their own lunch box.
- Most of the students smoke, specially they used to take vape and they think they are being smart while smoking and here people are getting addicted towards it like anything. And sometimes because of their addiction we have faced fire alarm issues.
- I found my accommodations with the help of my connection, who already lives there.
- My monthly rent is 450 pounds, including all the bills. Facilities are given, like free wifi and kitchen sharing.
- I face the problem while securing accommodation I was trying to take accommodations nearby college, but it was costly also, so further I tried to look far, far from college then I got the accommodations where no smoking and no meat eating allowed, which I was also looking for
- Join the university group; there you will get a lot of options for accommodations; it will really be helpful for new students. Try to get in the WhatsApp group of your course and university and ask for any help there you need.
- My accommodations are quite far; it's taken me almost an hour and a half, but here in Hounslow most of the Indian lives so here we can get Indian foods and snacks.

- The university campus: The University of East London Docklands campus is truly the epitome of beauty, you can never get enough of the fresh cold breeze and the scenic beauty and the sunsets.
- The university accomodation: Im an international student and I was not able to find good private accommodations, but then i decided to stay on campus, and im really grateful i did. All the bills are included and we get a private room in a very less price as compared to places nearby. If you face any electrical, plumbing issues, it is fixed within an hour or two, thats really commendable.
- Course Structure: The courses are really well structured and are designed according to the future aspects as well. There are no useless theories and the practicals are conducted very often as well.
Dislikes
- Lectures Timing: The timings of the classes are quite poorly managed.
- Less Exposure: Despite being a good university, the crowd which i found was not upto the mark, very much indian students and less exposure to international european or any other students.
- Career zone: The career zone of the university is trying to level up themselves but yeah that is one think to consider before coming here.
- I have an on-campus accomodation. I was offered the accomodation when I had applied through the university portal online.
- Currently my monthly rent is £750, which i think is really good because it is a private room with a private bathroom and a shared kitchen, so you can actually have your privacy without anyone disturbing you.
- My accomodation is like 2 mins walk from the classroom. Btw the rent includes all the bills as well, water bill, electricity bill, heater, water heater, gas bill and 24/7 support in any emergencies

Dislikes
- University takes the classes separately for international students and local students.
- Evaluation of the assignments and projects could have marked more better.
- Attendance system for the students are weak
- I opted for the University accommodation which was very pleasant and very unique.
- I book my accommodation from my university website itself. The monthly expenses for my hostel was 812 GBP. In the hostel they gave a kitchen, Living area, and a shared room for two people.
- I thought of taking accommodation outside but did not want to take risk and chose University hostel. Accommodation in the same university campus. I would suggest future students not to take risks and choose university Hostels.

- For my course, We don’t have to attend university on a regular basis. We only have very few classes. It does not feel like I am a university student because I don’t get to be on campus that much.
I chose this university mainly because of course accreditation, friendly staff, support provided to international students. Experience is overall satisfactory.
Likes
- I like the infrastructure of our university because it is in front of the river and the runway of London City Airport.
- The university library is also amazing with free printers and publishers.
Dislikes
- I didn't like the course structure and the subjects.
- The placement from the University was also not good for my course, I didn't get a single opportunity to interact with any of the hiring companies.
It was a great experience because it was the first time I went abroad to study. I met hundreds of different countries people and learnt a lot from them. There is one sports club as well in the University, which attracted me more to get admission in the University because they are sending people to national and international clubs from there.
Likes
- Everything that the university provides and encourages the student. They never make the student feel low or demotivated. Encouragement is the key of the university of east london
Dislikes
- Nothing to dislike about the university. Everything is well organized and put together so that anyone cannot feel anything about it. Really grateful to be a part of the UEL community.
I chose this university as it is unexceptionally amazing, the admission process is seamless and they provide loads of offers for future. Overall experience till now has been fun and adventurous. Reached really good vibes from the staff and lecturers overall. Nothing negative about UEL.
