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.

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?

I am majoring in Media and Communication Studies, but I am dissatisfied with the programme's excessive emphasis on qualitative research methods over quantitative ones. I also feel that seminar discussions take up too much time.

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.
