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!

Alejandro
University of Westminster
Business Management BA Honours
One of my biggest goals is to study abroad in Japan for a year. I’ve always been passionate about experiencing different cultures, and I believe immersing myself in a new environment will be an incredible learning experience. Not only will it give me a fresh perspective on the world, but it’s also a great way to grow personally and professionally. Employers value people who are ambitious, independent, and open to new experiences, and I see this opportunity as a way to develop those qualities even further. Plus, let’s be honest—exploring Japan, learning the language, and diving into the culture sounds like an amazing adventure! I’m excited for the challenges and growth that come with it, and I know it’ll be a life-changing experience that shapes my future in the best way possible.

BSc (Hons) Psychology
Hi, I'm Alexia. I have lived in Romania for 11 years before coming to London. The transition from Romania to the UK was challenging as I had to adapt to a new language and way of life. However, it's been an incredible journey so far. I am currently in my third year studying psychology at Goldsmiths. I have decided to pursue this degree because I was curious about the human mind and behaviour and here at Goldsmiths I can explore this further. After completing my undergraduate studies, I want to take a gap year to travel, as well as gain experience in the field that I am interested in. I would be happy to answer any questions you might have and share my experience so far at Goldsmiths.
