Future Alumni Event …

Hi everyone,

Do you know someone whose talent should be recognised and celebrated at SOAS? Have you always thought that you and your peers deserve an award?  

Now is your time to shine!

Our Alumni Team, in partnership with the Students’ Union, is launching the SOAS Future Alumni Awards for final‑year undergraduate and postgraduate students as they prepare to join our global alumni community of nearly 95,000 graduates around the world.

The SOAS Alumni Team works in partnership with the Students’ Union to build meaningful connections between students and alumni. We curate events, networks and opportunities that help you stay connected after graduation and continue to benefit from the SOAS community.

These awards are one way we celebrate the spirit, creativity and achievements that make our SOAS community unique.

You can nominate yourself or a fellow final‑year student for a range of fun and meaningful categories – from Future Changemaker to Most Iconic Dissertation Idea.

You’re welcome to submit multiple nominations, especially if you’d like to recognise different people in different categories.

Shortlisted students will be invited to a special awards ceremony on Wednesday 22 April 2026, where winners will be announced. We are also inviting senior members of the University’s leadership to take part in the ceremony, and we will confirm details closer to the date.

Thank you for helping us celebrate our community and shine a light on the Class of 2026.
