University of London: International Programmes

Study in Pakistan, graduate from the University of London

The University of London has 18 colleges and 10 research institutes, and, as the name suggests, it is situated in London. It offers foundation, undergraduate, postgraduate, diploma and research degree programmes. However, the most interesting fact about it is that one does not necessarily have to be residing in London to graduate from this University.

For the past 150 years, the University of London has been providing education to foreign students through distance learning. Those who have work or family commitments or simply cannot afford to live in London can prepare and sit for exams in their own country. Moreover, the standard of the degree provided is exactly the same as that awarded to those students living and studying in London. Presently, this programme is being offered in 180 countries with 54,000 students from around the world enrolled in the University. Students, residing in their respective countries, can either study on their own or at a local institution registered with the University of London.
