School of Oriental and African Studies
|
The School of Oriental and African Studies (Soas) is part of the University of London and enjoys a central location in student-centric Bloomsbury, with a second campus a short distance away near King's Cross. It was initially founded in 1916 as a place to train British administrators for postings across the empire. These days, it's the UK's only higher education institution to focus on the languages, cultures and societies of Africa, Asia and the Middle East, with a worldwide reputation for its teaching and research. There are around 4,000 students (about half of them are postgraduates) representing 100 countries, making for a close-knit, cosmopolitan and fascinating student population. |
Fees
Students who started full-time undergraduate courses in 2006 paid £3,000 - liable to rise with inflation.
Bursaries
£700 for students who receive the maximum maintenance grant. £400 for students who receive a partial maintenance grant.
Accommodation
First years are accommodated wherever possible and Soas has access to a range of halls of residence - both its own and intercollegiate University of London halls. Costs vary, but anticipate around £100 a week.
