Student review [#34288]
for East Asian Studies
at SOAS University of London
London, The United Kingdom
SOAS is a unique university, in terms of courses, people and it’s impact on various world issues.
The courses are full of interesting content, and the lecturers usually deliver it well.
The facilities, such as it’s library, are great. The library specifically is well-stocked with resources and academic research about many different topics of interest for culture and language studies. There are also plenty of silent study spaces in the library and around campus.
The biggest downside to this university is, unfortunately, the management and administration team. Do not expect to get quick email replies, or your phone calls answered. It has really been a hindrance to my own studies, as well as my course mates’ studies. If there is an issue with anything that the head of department can’t help you with, the likelihood of getting it resolved on time is very, very low.
Overall, the university is great, as long as there are no issues with anything outside of academic content.
