New College of the Humanities (UK)

New College of the Humanities is a British university, established in Bloomsbury, London, in 2011. Its stated aim is to offer a high-quality education to rival Oxford and Cambridge. Founded by the philosopher, A.C. Grayling - who will become its first master - the university will offer courses in law, economics, philosophy, history, and English literature, with one-on-one tutorials and a 10/1 student-teacher ratio. Fourteen other academics are involved in the project, including Richard Dawkins, Ronald Dworkin and David Cannadine. The first classes will be offered in September 2012, with annual fees of £18,000
