We'll email you your unique LSHTM student number. You'll need this to set up an IT account so that you can then log in to Applicants Portal to track your application and to accept your offer if you are successful. Keep a note of your user ID and account details as you will need these throughout the process.


English Language Requirements

As part of the application process, applicants are required to demonstrate how they meet the School’s minimum English Language requirements. This is particularly important for applicants requiring a Tier 4 Student Visa, as the UK Home Office dictates that every student from outside the UK and European Union (EU) must show evidence of a minimum level of English language ability (called CEFR B2 level) in order to be granted a Tier 4 Student visa and study in the UK
