Groves, N. et al. (2011). "Shaw's Academical Dress of Great Britain and Ireland". Burgon Society. Following the UK government's granting of autonomous degree awarding powers to a number of the University of London's constituent institutions, all students graduating from King's College London, University College London, and the London School of Economics and Political Science from 2007 have the choice of receiving a degree from their respective place of study or from the federal university.Groves, N. et al. (2011) Thus, each of these institutions now has its own distinctive academic dress that differs from that of the federal university. The remaining fifteen colleges continue to award University of London degrees (as at 2014), and so for these the academic dress of the University of London remains in place.
