" It's a very good uni, in a beautiful location in central London. It's a bit disorganised as it generally takes ages for the staff to get back to your emails. The level of education though is very high and the classes offered are always very interesting and engaging. There are a lot of societies and clubs and the social life is great. "

" The program is designed for international professionals with little flexibility over their own free time. The courses worked around out schedule and the staff was very accommodating when it came to covid flexibility. We were one of the few masters programs in my country that actually went fully online. Its been two amazing years and I can say I don't regret them. "

" Although i began and am aiming to complete my masters during the pandemic, Ive found my overall experience at SOAS to be very positive. I was unable to attend in person classes, however, academic and administrative staff were always reachable and understanding about student wellbeing and any support needed due to the current global situation. As lockdown rules have eased, the university has done what it can to get students involved in in person activities while still considering their safety. "

" SOAS is a great institution for international students to make new friends and experience a new environment. Students can also enjoy uni clubs and outdoor activities and also can build their careers for the future. SOAS also have free language classes from different societies that are full of international students and staffs which is one of the most international university in London. "

" Attending any University of London school whilst living in Central London is going to be very expensive. The cost of living is high, especially rent. SOAS does, however, offer two student accommodations which are a reasonable price for their central location approx. £600-750pm depending on room choice and building. "
