Somewhere between 10 and 20 percent of all UK students attend one of its colleges, which include some of the most prestigious places of study in the world. Many universities in Britain and abroad began life as associate colleges of the university, offering its degrees under licence. In recent years this aspect of the university's work has revived due to the globalisation of the education market, and an increasing number of overseas academic institutes offer University of London diplomas and degrees. The main offices of the University of London are at Senate House (University of London) in Bloomsbury, London, which includes a substantial library and the residence of the chancellor. Founded in 1836, the university at first comprised just two colleges, University College London (UCL) and King's College London (KCL), but now has over 15, many of which are major institutions in their own right. Besides UCL and King's, the most famous are Imperial College London, the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE), Queen Mary, University of London (QMUL), Royal Holloway, University of London (RHUL), Goldsmiths College, and the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS). The predecessor of the University of Southampton was a constituent college of the University of London up to 1952, when Southampton was granted its own Royal Charter. The university is a federal body made up of a number of highly autonomous colleges and institutes, widely scattered across greater London. For most practical purposes, its constituent colleges are treated as individual universities. Under English law, some of these are ''Recognised Bodies'' with the authority to grant their own degrees (which means that they enjoy the same status as other institutions with their own degree-awarding power), while others are ''Listed Bodies'' that offer courses leading to degrees from the University of London (which means that they have the same status as the constitutent institutions of the University of Wales and the colleges of University of Oxford, University of Cambridge, and University of Durham).

Of course, the decision as to which ones are "most famous" is POV, but sometimes editorial discretion is useful. ;-) :::: User:Jdforrester User_talk:Jdforrester 23:06, 26 Aug 2004 (UTC) :::::Sounds like a plan! :) User:Lukobe 02:30, 27 Aug 2004 (UTC) ==Recognised or Listed bodies== Are Courtald and Cancer Research still Listed Bodies? I thought they now had college status in their own right. Both are listed as individual institutions in the HESA statistics [http://www.hesa.ac.uk/holisdocs/pubinfo/student/institution0203.htm] and [http://www.hesa.ac.uk/holisdocs/pubinfo/student/notes0203.htm] User:Timrollpickering 22:19, 10 Jun 2004 (UTC) : [http://www.icr.ac.uk/index.html] states that the ICR is a College within the UoL. Courtaulds is less forthcoming. User:Icairns 00:05, 11 Jun 2004 (UTC) Further to this, the British Institute in Paris (BIP) is now called The University of London In Paris (TULIP). I see a ghosted link to the University of London Union also appears on some pages. 00:15, 11 Oct 2004 (UTC) ==External Degree program== Someone with a better awareness of where to place it among the constituent college, etc. should include the large external degree program (www.londonexternal.ac.uk), and probably link it to distance education. User:64.229.40.47 06:35, 19 Sep 2004 (UTC) == University of London Royal Postgraduate Medical School == How does this school fit into the overall structure? User:Fawcett5 15:23, 22 May 2005 (UTC)
