10 GIFs That Accurately Describe What Its Actually Like To Be A Student At Kings College London

Uni life in the UK may seem to be a common experience that all students share. We talk about student problems, we laugh at university-themed memes and basically everything we do is #relatable. However, there are certain things that only some of us will understand. Time at university spent in Central London is completely different to time spent in the middle of fields in Surrey, York or East Anglia (let’s get real, that’s the truth). These differences in student experience are apparent even within London, maybe even more. Because of our similarities and proximity of our campuses, the rivalry between London Universities increases equally with our claims emphasising how different we actually are. Get ready for the London uni experience from the perspective of King’s College London students presented by GIFs that accurately describe what its actually like to be a student at KCL.

1. Walkabout on Wednesday is one of the cheesiest but unforgettable experiences you will ever have as a student

2. Walking across Waterloo Bridge in the morning is an every day struggle

The real rite of passage. This GIF is not even an exaggeration.

Being the most central uni in London is not always a great thing.
