LSE guided campus tour

Wednesday 11 December 2024 2.30pm to 3.10pm

Hosted by the Student Recruitment and Study Abroad team

LSE campus , United Kingdom

Our guided campus tours are a great opportunity to visit some of LSE’s key facilities and get a feel for what it’s like to be a student at the School.

Guided campus tours are led by current LSE students and last for approximately 40 minutes.

Booking is essential. To attend the session, you will need to register in advance by clicking on ‘How can I attend?’. After registering you will receive a confirmation email with further details.

Accessibility

If you have any access requirements, you can indicate this on the booking form at the time of registering for the tour. Alternatively, please contact Anna Sawicki Smith to discuss your requirements.

Accessibility guides for all LSE buildings can be viewed on the AccessAble website.

Attendance is free of charge and does not form part of the School’s selection process.

What time do I need to arrive and where does the campus tour start?

We advise that you arrive 5-10 minutes before the scheduled 2.30pm tour departure time. Please refer to the information in your booking confirmation email for details of where the tour will begin.

Holborn and Temple underground stations are a five to ten minute walk away from LSE. Use our maps of LSE and directions to the campus to find your way to us. 

We are unable to wait for late arrivals. If you arrive after the tour has departed, you are welcome to take a self-guided tour around LSE’s campus using the LSExplorer.

Can I bring guests with me?

When booking a place you will be given the opportunity to book a place for one guest to accompany you. We cannot accommodate any additional guests.

Can I visit academic departments or speak to academic staff during my visit?

Tours do not include visits to individual academic departments, nor are we able to arrange appointments with academic members of staff. For an introductory presentation about the range of study options at LSE, student life and the application process, please register for an online Discovery session.

Does the tour include student accommodation?

Visits to LSE’s halls of residence are not included in our guided campus tours. To find out about accommodation options at LSE, please visit our Residential Services webpage.

If there is a particular residence you would like to visit, you are advised to email their reception team in advance to determine whether they would be able to offer you a virtual tour on your chosen date. Contact details for the reception teams can be found on individual residence webpages.

I can’t visit on any of the listed dates. Can you arrange a guided tour for me at another time?

We can only offer guided tours on the dates listed. Outside of these times, you are welcome to visit LSE and take a self-guided tour using our LSExplorer.

Alternatively, there are more opportunities to visit LSE or experience LSE from home.

Can I store my luggage?

We do not have storage facilities at LSE so you will be required to keep personal belongings with you at all times. Consequently, we would ask that you avoid bringing luggage with you. Mainline stations, such as London King’s Cross and London Waterloo, often offer paid for left luggage facilities.

Can I make a group booking?

If you are making a booking for a school or college group of ten or more students in Year 11 or above, please complete our group visit request form instead.
