End use: social media/Instagram posts.

If photography what style: landscape and portrait.

If video what style: vlogs/diaries.

What features absolutely need: flash/cc shouldn't be warm, I want it be be in a more cooler tone.

What features will be nice to have: I'm not really sure about much but I would like it to have a flip screen.

Portability: Pocketable.

Hi, I am an International Student who wants to study Politics and International Relations (BA). I mostly applied to colleges in London for 2026 September intake. I initially wanted to go to SOAS because they are really respected in the country I live in and also because they seem left leaning in their politics (or so i thought) but then I heard that they are suspending students over peaceful protests and demonstrations for palestine and other issues. This is when i started doubting my decision of going there and also I've heard horrible things about their admin and everything.

My second choice after this was Goldsmiths, mainly because it seems pretty intimate in the studies, I'm not extremely social so I don't mind that. And it is obviously more art inclined which is a draw back but at the same time I am an artist myself so maybe this could be a good thing for me to network or to be in a inspiring environment where I could learn more about art despite doing a political course.

This is has become really confusing for me because I HAVE to go abroad for studies for multiple reasons and the most important being that neither politics nor art courses in my country are good, the resources here are extremely outdated. And there are no networking options here for these too, so I'm only left with this, I have to go. I really look forward to hearing from previous students, staff or anyone who's familiar with the environment. I'm open to questions you might have. I also have offers from Qmul and Birkbeck. But Goldsmiths and Soas seemed like a better fit. please be kind :)

prepared from claude earlier for english exam, i found that link from this sub. is there any for Sociology as well? exam is tomorrow.
