While it may technically now be December, it's still not too late to make your end-of-year contribution to the SOAS Scholarship Fund...

SOAS has committed to investing half of their annual surplus to specifically fund scholarships. But with nearly 1,000 scholarship applications received annually, they cannot keep up with demand. Regardless of circumstance, no student should experience financial hardship while studying. When you give to scholarships, you help keep the brightest talent at SOAS. Make your gift today to support student scholarships, you can change a life.

Giving November is a month-long celebration of the spirit of SOAS, the intellectual curiosity and diversity of thought our students, staff and alumni bring to this community.
