I started studying at the LSE in September 2025 and it has been great; the staff, amenities, the access provided and even the interaction with students from many countries. It's been a great period of learning and trying new things that i haven't had the opportunity to do in my country. In law, there are masterclasses in various fields to help you up skill, opportunities to network at career fairs, and so many fun places around London. I'd totally recommend LSE to (international) students.

Q
What is the most sociable hall to live in as a fresher at LSE? I’m concerned about making friends. With this in mind would it be better to apply for an intercollegiate hall?

Studying at the London School of Economics has been an intellectually stimulating and academically rigorous experience. The fast-paced and challenging environment encourages critical thinking and independent learning, while the interdisciplinary approach offers a truly global perspective on complex issues. I have found the discussion-based and debate-driven teaching style both inspiring and thought-provoking, pushing me to develop stronger analytical skills. Beyond academics, the diverse and multicultural community at LSE creates a vibrant and inclusive atmosphere, making the experience not only rewarding but also transformative. Overall, it has been a demanding yet empowering journey that has contributed significantly to my personal growth and professional development.

Everything at school is fine. The sockets on the sofas on the fourth floor of the library are not working. I hope they can be replaced as soon as possible.

I stay in LSE accommodation during my MSc and found it very convenient and well-managed. The location is unbeatable—right in central London (Shoreditch) with easy access to campus, libraries, and public transport. Rooms are clean, though some can feel a bit small. The staff are helpful, and maintenance requests are generally handled quickly. Social events and common areas make it easy to meet other students. Overall, it’s a great option for anyone wanting a safe, central, and supportive living environment while studying at LSE.

The program offers a rich and well-structured curriculum, and the case analyses are engaging and practical. Weekly department sports sessions are particularly enjoyable, as encouraged me to try different types of sports, and the instructors are highly professional and supportive. Career services provide a wide range of events and resources, which are generally helpful. It would be even better to have more talks by alumni currently working in industry, as these would give us clearer insights into real workplace experiences. One area for improvement is study space. The Management students could benefit from more quiet self-study areas, as the library is relatively limited and often full in the afternoons.
