University of London degrees.When you graduate from a college that's a member of the university of London, are all of the degrees the same? For example, if you were to complete a degree in the same subject and classification as somebody at a different college, would the degree itself be the same? In terms of the physical degree itself and the weight in graduate prospects?
Cheers.

Re: University of London degrees.Not a very fair comparison. SOAS is very specialised and thus not as well known as UCL which offers a broader variety of courses. SOAS is still extremely well respected in its field however.(Original post by bestofyou)
I'd be willing to be a UCL degree is held in greater respect than a degree from The School of Oriental and African Studies. Not that a degree from the latter isn't respected. -

Re: University of London degrees.Yes I know, however I was using it as an example as OP never stated which degree or which college he is looking at.(Original post by xmarilynx)
