Calendar: Programme Regulations, Course Guides, School and Academic Regulations

A single resource for regulations relating to students and their study

For the 2020/2021 academic session

The Calendar is published on the LSE website for use by LSE staff and students. Its purpose is to gather together into a single resource regulations relating to students and their study.

The Calendar is a web-first resource. A limited number of print versions of the School and Academic Regulations have been generated from this online version for use by LSE staff for administrative purposes. The online version of the Calendar, which will be adjusted from time to time throughout the year, is the definitive version: in the case of differences between versions, or differences between the Calendar and other sources across the School where the information has been replicated, the online Calendar version should be considered authoritative.

Disclaimer

You must note however that while care has been taken to ensure that this information is up-to-date and correct, a change of circumstances since publication may cause the School to change, suspend or withdraw a course or programme of study, or change the fees that apply to it. The School will always notify the affected parties as early as practicably possible and propose any viable and relevant alternative options. Note that that the School will neither be liable for information that after publication becomes inaccurate or irrelevant, nor for changing, suspending or withdrawing a course or programme of study due to events outside of its control, which includes but is not limited to a lack of demand for a course or programme of study, industrial action, fire, flood or other environmental or physical damage to premises.

You must also note that places are limited on some courses and/or subject to specific entry requirements. The School cannot therefore guarantee you a place. Please note that changes to programmes and courses can sometimes occur after you have accepted your offer of a place. These changes are normally made in light of developments in the discipline or path-breaking research, or on the basis of student feedback. Changes can take the form of altered course content, teaching formats or assessment modes. Any such changes are intended to enhance the student learning experience.
