Since 1858, University of London degrees have been accessible to students all over the world through the University of London programmes, the longest standing flexible and distance learning programme in the world. Over the years, many exceptional people who have studied with the University of London programmes have moulded our world. Former students include seven Nobel Prize winners, leaders of Commonwealth countries, government ministers, renowned authors, academics, judges and business leaders. Today, the University of London programmes is truly international in character with over 50,000 students in more than 190 countries.

University of London programmes are developed by Colleges of the University. Academics at these Colleges develop the syllabuses, prepare the study materials, and are responsible for the assessment of students. This means that students benefit from the academic thoroughness and important research carried out by the Colleges. It also ensures that the standard of award made to University of London programmes students is maintained at the same level as the standard of award made to students studying at one of the Colleges of the University. In the case of the undergraduate laws programme, academic direction is provided by six University of London Colleges with Law Schools or Departments, collectively known as the Laws Consortium. The six Colleges are: Birkbeck, King’s College London, London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE), Queen Mary, School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS), and UCL (University College London).
