I walked past SOAS enterance almost every day for a month when I was doing a month long study abroad at non-SOAS UoL this summer. I had no idea that the inside is so big, it looks quite small when you walk past it. Then again, isn't that every building in London?
I lived in that area with a study abroad program for a semester. such a nice place. and I got to walk past SOAS every day to go to my internship at the Folklore Society in Woburn sq!
Lol I swear every old English school is called the real hog warts. I went to an all girls school in Kent and people said it looked like hogwarts. They also said that for all my friends schools
Evan I have a possible answer for a question you asked. The Cranes. Legend promises a miracle or wish to someone who folds 1000 cranes in a year. My older cousin did it. They looked great. So I assume the ones you saw took within a year? Not really an answer but I tried
That is one nice ass university! Meanwhile we organise and cook studentlunch on our own in a kitchen from the 50ies, only theoretically have central heating and our floors still have burn marks from WWII.
I'm totally certain your ad was very effective but now I don't know if I want to go to SOAS because it's actually something that got my attention or because I'm so dissatisfied with my life and career choice that I wan't to go to the other side of the world to study...
@@meiiimeii1960 Back in the day it had a kind of diplomatic immunity (I guess because the Foreign Office used to send staff/trainees to learn relevant languages there). That meant it never got busted for marijuana. The pool tables were where marijuana was smoked. Sometimes you could smell it from Russell Square tube.
Funny because Lucy lucymoon went to SOAS and Lucy's sister is named Rowan and if I'm correct you went to Rowan University aha banter. But my favourite Starbucks is in that area, just by the British Museum. My highest grading essay was written there.
omg why does wvwry other uni look so much better xD I'm in the ine across the road -_- seriously disappointing tbh. i didn't have enough Lucas points to go soas T_T haha
@@kupamanduka due to COVID, we are doing all lessons online, so I stayed in my home country, Greece. The university impressed me, actually. Very well organised, vast sources of information, great students. It was a very good choice. I truly recommend it!
@@lupinthe4th400 thank you! i envy you lol yeah i certainly would try to pursue master here once i graduate. good luck with your study, you're doing great!

SOAS does seem like a really cool place, wish when I'd attempted university in London I'd made a better choice!
these are so calming for me
This makes me even more excited to start university next year (if that's even possible!)
4 years later. How was it? I'm starting university this September
@@Kebbab.213how was your experience at SOAS ?

If you enjoy looking around universities, let me know if you'd like me to show you round Oxford (aka the real Hogwarts) one day :)
Sally Le Page congrats for getting into Oxford
Sally Le Page HEY EVERYONE THIS PERSON GOES TO OXFORD YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT

Alex Danilova yas booktube squad
That is one nice ass university! Meanwhile we organise and cook studentlunch on our own in a kitchen from the 50ies, only theoretically have central heating and our floors still have burn marks from WWII.
I'm sure the guy on the bottom left box were the corners meet on the screen in the youtube space is a booktuber called benjaminoftomes
I think he's holding "Tales of the Peculiar" which is the companion book to the Miss Peregrine’s trilogy.
Katie Stewart Yeah it is benjamin!!
Katie Stewart BOOKTUBE SQUAD! Did any body just freak when she said her name was maeve cuz empire of storms destroyed my soul.
So when are you gonna pull a Bruce Wayne and become Cactus Man? x
Evan you pronounced stroopwafel so good!!!
Sittin at my desk at work watching your video instead of being productive!👍

I sound really stupid but are you able to go into the RUclips space (like the shop and just to look around) if you aren't a youtuber?
+Cansu Ozdemir anyone can go to the store!
Did anyone ever tell you what used to happen at the pool tables?

It would have been nice to watch all that video and actually know what SOAS actually stands for. Did you really think that one through Evan mate?
School of Oriental and African Studies
So weird that apparently people around the world have heard of SOAS but I've lived in London my whole life and have never heard of it before...
I only found it last week xD
I’ve heard of SOAS
Yh boi represented in London by a fellow Devonian!
So early omg❤❤
This video kind of just made me want pizza.
Lol that's my uni
super hipster uni
The Stammering Dunce everythinggggg
In Dutch, when you say: "SOAS", actually means STD's XD
SOA means STD in dutch, so initially I thought you were going to be exploring STDs ha oops
Everyone at SOAS seems appropriately dour.
