[quote=Anonymous]Op i am from London. My first BF went to UCL. The colleges you list are excellent. And you have had a lot of helpful imput i wont repeat. However, there is one aspect of studying in London which no one has mentioned. Its harder socially for London university students. The city is huge and often the campuses are scattered. She wont get the sense she is enclosed in a college world at all. Of course there are student residences and some student union buildings (with bars etc) but there is not the all encompassing "we are all here at college together" experience. You have to really make an effort, join groups like rowing or whatever. The social aspect isnt just automatic and at your fingertips. So starting out can feel disproportionately lonely, though it does improve.[/quote]
