As you will understand, we need detailed information from you. Applicants should contact LSEC and ask for advice at that point: we shall be able to say how likely it is that we shall have places on the programme that interests you.

Applicants from outside the UK should apply through the South Asia office. If you are sending material by post, this is likely to take a long time. However, we are happy to accept your application through either route.

For further information about LSEC and studying in the UK, applicants should contact our South Asia office or visit our website.

Some programmes interview most applicants. Overseas applicants could be asked to attend an interview, and if so, we do our best to ensure the interviews are well co-ordinated. Where selection is not by interview, we treat overseas applicants exactly like UK applicants except that they are allowed more time because of the distances involved.

Contact the Admissions department for application form. The application form enables you to provide all the information we need from you. If you would like an informal discussion before application, please contact the department offering the subject in which you are interested.

The most important part of the application form is the section which asks you to make a statement setting out the reasons why you wish to do the programme, explaining the relevance of your qualifications and experience, and outlining your professional development plans. We will make our decision on the basis of what it is you plan to do, and this is your opportunity to set out succinctly the nature of your career plans. If you have already talked to us during a visit you will have a clearer idea of the main points to make. The form also includes a section for a confidential report from a referee, or academic or professional sponsor, who should be able to confirm your ability to meet our entry criteria.
