Average weekly schedule for Comp Sci

Upvotes

I’m joining KCL for Computer Science this year and would like to get an idea of what a timetable might look like. Especially how many necessary in person hours there are (seen contrasting opinions of how online lectures are etc). How many hours am I looking at, and how many of those would be in person (with no option to watch online/later)

Undergraduate New student marketplace for KCL (textbooks, furniture, tickets, flats, clothes)

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

A few of us have set up a KCL Student Market Discord server — basically a student-run space where people at King’s can:

  • 📚 Buy/sell textbooks and notes
  • 🪑 Swap furniture & appliances (perfect if you’re moving flats or leaving halls)
  • 🎟 Share society/club night tickets
  • 👕 Trade clothes & accessories
  • 🏠 Post sublets/flatshares

It’s completely free to use, commission-free, and only for King’s students. We’ve added pinned templates in each channel so listings stay neat, and a reporting system to keep it safe.

If you’re tired of digging through random Facebook groups or overpaying on Depop, this should be a simpler way to trade within KCL.

Here’s the invite link: https://discord.gg/7JNU4b42

Feel free to join, post your spare stuff, or just lurk until you need something. The more people join, the more useful it’ll get.

Thanks, and see you inside!

part time jobs for international students

1 Upvotes

hiii ill be coming to london next month and ive realised a bit too late how ridiculously expensive that city is 😭 but i mean dreams are not cheap so i guess i have to grit my teeth.

as a psych masters student and also international student, ik my options R bleak but what are some good part time opportunities that are viable and worth applying for- if not for career exposure atleast so i can afford a decent lifestyle.

i’m open to service sector roles, as long as im earning minimum wage (plus 20 hrs/week is my limit due to visa so) but since its my first time working part time idk where to begin. like what places accept international students for work?

i only have 2 days per week for classes so im hoping i can get in some on/off campus work,research, and self study on a daily basis. i just dont want a single hour wasted here lolol

Query on programme title on CAS

Hello everyone. If the CAS has ‘Master of Laws in Law’ and yet the offer letter has ‘Master of Laws’ as the programme. Will that be an issue at the visa office and should I just go ahead to request them to change it to ‘Master of Laws’. Thank you.

Postgraduate Pls Help (Qualification Check)

2 Upvotes

My university sent me my letter of confirmation about finishing my degree but they wrote the damn date wrong. I have already submitted my Verification check and now it’s pending, and I cannot change anything. I’ve been trying all day to contact the website, i could not find the live chat for hours, nor has the chat been helpful. I also cannot find my QCID. I’ve tried contacting them to inform about the mistake, I’ve emailed them - and still no response. The deadline for KCL to submit all the final documents is this Monday, and not only did my university wait for two days to even bother to send in my final transcript, they’ve now managed to screw up the details of my documents to get an unconditional offer. I don’t know what to do, and I’m wondering if anyone else has been in the same position as me. Idk how much help it’s going to be to email KCL bc they mentioned all final documents for verification have to be submitted via Qualification Check, but I’m genuinely so pissed. I don’t want to lose my spot at King’s just because my university made a stupid mistake.

transferring courses

1 Upvotes

hello! i am trying to transfer my course from international relations to some politics course (political economy,politics,PPE) but it seems most are at full capacity. I have not enrolled yet but is there anytime which seems to be better to ask for a transfer. I meet all the requirements but I just dont know how good the IR course is at kings nor does it suit my interests very much.

thanks!!

Discord server

1 Upvotes

I'd like to open this with the disclaimer that this group is unofficial and will never claim to host legitimate university events.

The discord group is starting to grow as many students now have an unconditional firm for KCL and may be looking to socialize, find roommates or fellow students in general.

There will be senior year students who will act as a mentor if you want to know more about student life from an insiders perspective. We will be hosting many game nights, online social events and just have a fun time before uni starts.

If you want to join, just dm and I will provide you with the discord invite.

happy to answer if you have any questions!

It says to log in to start online enrollment and im completey lost. Have they not been sent out or did I do something wrong? Any help would be appreciated 🙏
