International
Scholarships at New College of the Humanities
Students who
exhibit remarkable academic achievement and potential are eligible for a number
of distinguished scholarships from the New College of the Humanities in the UK.
After
Reading Week of their first term of study for the first year of study, the applicants
chosen will receive awards totaling £500 from the New College of the
Humanities.
The new
college of the humanities provided undergraduate instruction in economics,
English, history, law, philosophy, politics, and international relations
through the University of London International Programme from September 2012
until September 2015. Starting in 2015, it offered its own degrees that were
approved by Southampton Solent University. Along with its multiple combined BA
and BSc degrees, students must successfully complete courses in applied ethics,
critical reasoning, science literacy, and LAUNCH, its professional development
program, in order to receive its "Diploma of New College of the
Humanities."
In the UK,
where the majority of higher education institutions are publicly funded, the
college's foundation drew a sizable response as well as a large amount of
negative press. The Times claimed that higher education has been a closed
market in the UK for too long while London's mayor, Boris Johnson, praised it
as a daring experiment. There was a backlash of rage from the intellectual
community. There were complaints that NCH had duplicated the course
descriptions of the international programs offered by the University of London
on its website, was charging significantly more for the same curriculum, and
that the senior academics involved in the project would actually only teach a
small portion of the course material. The for-profit nature of the college and
its expensive tuition were also criticized by academics.
A MA in
historical research and public history with Swansea University validation was
the first postgraduate degree that NCH announced it will start offering in
September of 2016. Three additional master's degrees—the MA in Economic Policy
& Communication, MSc in Global Politics, and MA in Philosophy—were
introduced by the college in 2017. NCH received renewable teaching
degree-awarding authority in February 2020 for a six-year initial duration.
After NCH was registered by the Office for Students as a provider of
publicly-funded higher education, these became indefinite in August 2020. NCH
declared in 2021 that it would apply for university status and authorization to
use the name Northeastern University - London after receiving indefinite degree
giving powers.
