New name for the University of London External System
28 July 2010
The CeDEP, SOAS qualifications are awarded by the University of London through the External System.
Following extensive consultation and debate, the University of London External System is adopting a new, up-to-date name to describe its programmes. The new name will be: University of London International Programmes
With a new url: http://www.londoninternational.ac.uk/
This change is in response to feedback and is a clear, simple and inclusive name that describes what the University offers its 50,000 students in 180 countries.
This change will take effect from the 1st of August 2010, but so as to save costs and minimise waste the change will be a gradual one through the normal cycle of updating teaching and promotional materials.
There will be no change to the academic award that students receive and the degree parchment will continue to state that the degree is from the University of London and signed by the Vice Chancellor.
