SOAS University of London
speciality: Law

I am originally from the USA but decided to pursue my Masters degree in London. My university has a large diverse community of students. I was able to thrive in this environment as I was accepted for being myself. I am
Proud to be a SOAS graduate.

I take part in the LLB programme, in terms of the course structure and the modules they are very clearly structured so student like me are well informed about what we need to learn. Also the university is a very inclusive university with many international student as well as social events hosted by the university . However, the help received by the university staff is limited. For example, I have spoke to many student as well as including myself who have reached out to lectures asking for help or clarifying misunderstanding who have ignored my emails or reply back to me saying that I should look on the Moodle page. As a first year student, I’m not quite used the structure and the independence of uni life however some staff have been quite oblivious to this . Other than that it’s a great university.

I believe studying law at SOAS is a specialization on its own! Absolutely love the unique courses it offers – probably not the most conventional modules. A lot of focus on laws and their impact on South Asian countries which makes it a truly enriching experience for me.

Pursuing my LLB degree through them was a life-changing experience. The faculty was extremely supportive and the online learning was not complex at all. I will always recommend other students opt for at least one degree from here.

It has a high academic standard and encourages its students to think about different issues with an open mind. The environment allows all kinds of people to coexist and work towards their degrees. SOAS provides what it stands for, a different perspective on the study of Asia and Africa through all of its degrees.
