Spotlight on London Business School

Ready to learn everything you need to know about business masters degrees at London Business School? You're in the right place!

London Business School boasts strong post-MBA career statistics and the Career Centre works closely with students and recruiters to ensure both groups are offered the best opportunities. Whatever assistance you need, the Career Centre is there to assist.

You’ll have access to experiential treks, networking events, internships and plenty of on-campus recruiting exercises.

Entrepreneurs can expect similarly strong support through the school’s many startup networks and channels (not to mention the classroom itself).

London is one of the most diverse, vibrant cities in the world and you won’t have any difficulty making the most of it during your time at LBS.

First, however, you’ll need to find a place to live. The LBS website offers plenty of tips in terms of neighbourhoods and rental tips. Most students opt for off-campus living, choosing instead to rent flats with their classmates.

Once you’re accepted, it’s a good idea to start reaching out through the forums and student groups and begin looking for places together. If you wait until you arrive in London, you’ll pay a small fortune for temporary housing while you look for a place to live.

Though there are many restaurants, takeaways and food trucks to try, aim to prepare as many meals as you can at home if you’re looking to save a few bucks. And, remember a tradeoff on rental costs could increase your transportation costs.

Of course, you don’t need any tips on how to enjoy London, but you may be interested in the experiences of these LBS graduates and Prodigy Finance borrowers:

Yes! Not only are scholarships available, LBS does an outstanding job of communicating opportunities through their website. While these funds aren’t a guarantee, LBS does suggest applying as early as possible to ensure you’re considered for relevant scholarships.

In addition to LBS scholarships open to all students, there are a number available to specific groups or individuals based on country of origin, gender and sector. You may automatically qualify for these funds while others require additional steps (such as business proposals or essay submissions).

Check your options early and don’t neglect the LBS-provided links to external scholarships for your best shot at obtaining much-needed scholarship funds to pursue your degree.
