Important information for LSE Alumni

• We need to check your eligibility to study in the UK. You will need to do this before your course commences by completing this form.
• You should have an LSE public account. The public account is the one you received when you applied to LSE. Your username is the non-LSE email address that you used at that time. If you cannot remember your password you can reset it online. We will need to activate Moodle for you. Please email us, using the email address you used for your public account. Should you have any issues (i.e. you no longer have access to the email address you originally used for your public account), please email us.
• Please make sure you have your LSE Alumni Campus/Library card. You will need this to access campus.

If you have studied the language before please follow these steps.

• This will take you through how to register for courses other than Level 1 including assessments to determine which course is right for you.

Taking the Language Level Assessment 

• The first step is to take your written test.

• The second step is to book your 1-2-1 appointment.

• The results of the written test will be used during your 1-2-1 appointment with a member of our teaching team. Please make sure you have taken the test before your interview.            

• Follow this link to register to take the test and then click on the 'login' option (top right hand corner) and you will be prompted to log on to the server. Use your Moodle username and password (current students and staff use your LSE username and password).

• You will see icons for each language we teach.

• Click on the appropriate language and you will see links to the test and also the 1-2-1 appointment slots.              

• If you have taken one of our courses before, passed the assessments for that language and level you can contact your teacher directly and they can verify the course you should take this year. When you get a reply from them please carry on with the registration process below.
