LSE scholarships for India

The London School of Economics (LSE) is offering 50 scholarships to students from India studying a Master’s programme at the School starting in 2013. Scholarships will range in value from £3,000 to £32,000 depending on financial need. Students must be holding an offer of a place on an LSE Master’s programme by 30 April 2013 to be eligible for an award and scholarships will be made on the basis of financial need.

LSE Director Professor Craig Calhoun said “LSE has enjoyed a strong relationship with India for over a century. This has included welcoming thousands of Indian students to study at the School during this time. We want to ensure that LSE’s doors are open to all talented students, regardless of financial circumstances, and are delighted to cement this relationship further by offering 50 scholarships, for graduate study, for students from India.”

To apply for one of these awards students should first of all apply for a place on one of the school's graduate programmes. The list of available Master’s programmes can be found on the graduate admissions website. 

Once you have applied for a place at the School you should complete the LSE Graduate  Financial Support application form. A link to this will be sent to you when the application is received by the school. Please follow the instructions provided and complete all sections of the form. This form is used by the Financial Support Office to assess candidates’ eligibility for all awards available at LSE, including the new Indian graduate scholarships. If you have already received an offer of a place for 2013, but have not previously applied for financial support then you can do so at any point until 26 April 2013.
