Scholarships

A number of grant schemes - including LSE Cities Scholarships and LSE Cities Alumni Scholarships - are available to provide financial assistance to outstanding Executive MSc in Cities applicants who would not otherwise be able to meet the full cost of tuition.

As only a limited number of awards are available, we use a selection process that considers both the quality of the applicant and their financial need. The former will be judged on the information provided in the programme application (submitted through LSE Graduate Admissions) and the latter will be assessed according to information provided in the Executive MSc in Cities Scholarship Application Form.

Applications for the 2025/26 cycle will open in November 2024.

Details of our current support can be found below.


LSE Cities Scholarships

Eligibility

The LSE Cities Scholarships are open to all Executive MSc in Cities applicants who are unable to fund their studies without financial assistance, regardless of their professional background, nationality or current residence.

Available Support

The maximum support offered by the LSE Cities Scholarships is £10,000 towards the cost of tuition. Smaller amounts may also be awarded.

Please note that no financial support is available for non-tuition fee costs, such as living expenses, travel or accommodation during study weeks. Successful recipients are expected to ensure that these costs are met by non-LSE sources.
