SOAS University of London Speciality : Modern Languages
programme: Arabic and Islamic Studies

Soas is supposedly amazing and one of the best in the country, however, I really struggled throughout my degree. The admin and communication were awful, for example, I was given very little support over covid and my year abroad was moved online. When I returned to SOAS I was informed my department had been disbanded, however, this had happened nearly 2 years previously and there was no official communication on this. Furthermore, when I had timetable clashes the blame was shifted onto me and I was told to consider counselling, which seemed like a completely irrelevant and unprofessional response.
