Ahmed
SOAS
BSc Accounting and Finance
Hi, I'm Ahmed!
I’m a first-year BSc Accounting and Finance student at SOAS. I chose SOAS because of its unique global perspective, diverse community, and strong emphasis on understanding finance in an international and real-world context. The course is both challenging and rewarding, offering a great mix of technical skills and critical thinking.
Beyond my studies, I have a strong background in teaching and mentoring. I’ve spent the past three years leading the 11 Plus department at a tuition center, successfully guiding students through their exams. This experience has strengthened my communication and leadership skills, which I now bring into my university life.
I’m passionate about exploring the intersections of finance, business, and global development, and I hope to qualify as a Chartered Accountant in the future. Outside of academics, I enjoy engaging in student-led initiatives and networking with like-minded individuals.
If you have any questions about studying Accounting and Finance at SOAS, student life, or anything else, feel free to reach out—I’d love to help!

Finance with Actuarial Science BSc (Hons)
Hi! I'm Alexandra, in my final year of Finance with Actuarial Science. I love all things fun from enjoying the hustle and bustle of London to learning more about Finance and Actuarial Science, its exciting I get to do all that at City. A Malaysian/ Singaporean who loves cooking but also has her fair share of take outs ( I know some delicious spots!), made some good friends and have taken many flights over my term breaks. I love my degree because of the skills I get to hone especially analytically but also because of the exposure I have when I get to choose my electives- I am exposed and developed holistically.
Regarding accommodation: I've tried Halls, Private Student Accommodation and Private Accommodation.
I got in through UK A Levels and a UOL Foundation Certificate. Happy to chat more if you have questions:)

Hi, I’m Ben!
I’m currently studying Accountancy at Lincoln University, and I’m in my third year, working towards a predicted 2:1 but pushing for a 1st. I’m passionate about finance, accounting, and business, and I’m keen to apply my knowledge in real-world scenarios.
Beyond my studies, I’ve taken part in various industry-focused opportunities, including:
Completing the Bloomberg Market Concepts course to develop financial markets knowledge.
Achieving Microsoft Office Specialist certification in Excel, enhancing my data analysis skills.
Winning 1st place in the CIMA Business Game Award, showcasing my problem-solving and strategic thinking.

I also have work experience across multiple industries, from customer service and operations to handling emergency calls for the NHS. These roles have strengthened my communication, teamwork, and problem-solving skills.

Outside of academics, I’m a huge football fan and love both playing and watching the game. I also enjoy gaming in my free time, whether it's competitive online matches or just relaxing with friends.

Kristine
University of Warwick
Accounting and Finance (BSc)
I am an open-minded and curious individual who thrives on exploring new experiences, ideas, and perspectives. Whether it’s immersing myself in different cultures, learning new skills, or pushing personal boundaries, I embrace challenges with enthusiasm and adaptability. My interests are diverse, spanning finance, art, theater, music, and adventure sports, reflecting my desire to engage with both analytical and creative disciplines. I find excitement in intellectual discussions, hands-on experiences, and deep dives into niche topics that broaden my understanding of the world. Always eager to step out of my comfort zone, I believe growth comes from experiencing the unfamiliar. From learning a new language to experimenting with different artistic styles or engaging in high-intensity activities like skydiving, I approach life with a mix of ambition, curiosity, and a constant drive for self-improvement. For me, every opportunity is a chance to evolve, connect, and gain new insights.
