Withdraw from LSE

What can you do?

First and foremost, you should be aware that should you choose to withdraw from LSE, this process is irreversible. If you are looking to take a temporary break in your studies but then return, we would suggest looking at an Interruption instead.

In order to withdraw, you should first speak with your Academic Adviser or Supervisor. If you decide to proceed, there are clear steps on how to do so available via this link.

I'm an MPhil / PhD student

If you are an MPhil or PhD student, you should contact the PhD Academy for more advice.

I'm living in halls

If you are living in Halls of Residence, you must also discuss your intention to withdraw from your programme with the Residential Services Office.

I'm studying on a visa

The Student Advice and Engagament Team will process the withdrawal and should inform you of any consequences on visas.
