How to apply

Taught courses

To apply for any of our full-time and part-time postgraduate taught courses you should use the online system provided by the UK Postgraduate Application and Statistical Service (UKPASS). UKPASS Track is the online application service available to anyone wanting to apply for postgraduate courses in the UK.

Their service offers applicants the opportunity to apply for up to 10 courses using an entirely online system. You may create your application in your own time and can complete unfinished sections at your own speed. Some sections of the application can be re-used for other courses, resulting in the applicant only having to complete it once. You can also track your application as it progresses through the system and receive any offer replies online.

Apply through UKPASS

Exceptions to applying via UKPASS

There are a range of courses that do not use the UKPASS system to process their applications.

Some professional qualifications have specific application forms. As these courses qualify students to practice in the UK, applicants from outside the EU, who require a permit to work in the UK would not normally be considered for entry. Please contact our Course Enquiries team on (free phone) 0800 923 8888 for further details.

Research Degrees

If you'd like to pursue a research degree at LSBU visit our website for research degree students or call our Course Enquiries Office on (free phone) 0800 923 8888 for a Research Degree Application Pack. This provides information on our degrees, the Tuition Fees involved and our postgraduate prospectus.
