I had wonderful research experience at SOAS. read more

The Library, cafe, bar and the hangout lounges are comfortable and perfect places to chill with friends. However, the constant surveillance by the security guards make it increasingly uncomfortable for the students to enjoy the campus at its fullest. All the facilities, however, are modern with no visible problem in accessing information technology. read more

Here’s what I think about SOAS, I think it was the perfect choice for me. You will meet a range of students from all over the world and genuinely people couldn’t be friendlier but at the same time you get to be taught by professional who visibly love their course. Their effort and care for their studies and yours is evident in the lectures. Within a week soas felt like home for me from lectures in the Brunei gallery to finding my favourite seat in the library, I felt like I had been there for years! Not to mention the range of societies on offer there couldn’t be a better place to get to know people and try something different. And the big difference is I get to engage in content that is actually interesting and new and reflective of the real world we are going to and already are living in. read more

Undoubtedly, I am grateful that I chose SOAS to study my undergraduate degree. Indeed, this is because the curriculum focuses on the voices, teachings and experiences of humans globally, rather than being merely Eurocentric. My favourite topics and modules have been those focused on Africa and the Black diaspora, as this is content I relate to as a Black woman, and I have not received this coverage elsewhere. I would defiantly recommend SOAS to anyone wanting to study an undergraduate or postgraduate degree. read more

poor and few facilities for students eg catering, no gym, study spaces especially quiet places for online meeting and online class. The security guards and the reception staffs are very rude and unhelpful. It is ridiculer not allowing students eat nearing the main gate, no enough space for students to have their lunch. read more

SOAS is a great uni…as long as you’re neurotypical, have great mental health and don’t require any help or support from them because they will leave you to drown. Software and tech issues mean you’ll be enrolled weeks late and have issues submitting exams and assignments which will cause unnecessary added stress. Some lecturers can’t be bothered to reply to queries and then scold you for not contacting them. Some leave feedback that isn’t at all helpful nor does it indicate how to improve. If you email SOAS, regardless of department, you’ll either get a response within a few weeks to a month or not at all, unless it regards SOAS taking money from you, then they respond at the speed of light which tells you all you need to know about this university. They’re in the business of making money and view students not as human beings, but walking ATMs. They will not lift a finger to help and support students and tell you to just get on with it or leave, essentially. They also lie. read more
