If a student requires support achieving the required standard of English language skills, a range of English for University courses is offered free of charge. Find out more.
INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS
Unfortunately we are unable to accept students from outside of the EU to study on our undergraduate degrees in London. This is because we are not a Tier 4 visa sponsor. This may change in the future, so do keep up-to-date via our website: www.lcibs.co.uk
APPEALS AND COMPLAINTS PROCEDURE
If on the rare occasion an applicant experiences a problem with the admissions process they should normally first raise the matter with the Admissions Manager by emailing: admissions@lcibs.co.uk. If an informal discussion does not resolve the situation satisfactorily, they should complete our Admissions Appeal Form.
