LSE LIFE Advisers
As you’re getting ready to join us at LSE, you might have a whole range of questions on your mind. How will you manage settling in in London? How will you spend your time outside the classroom? And how can you make the most of the opportunities and support available to you in the process?
You don’t need to figure out all the answers by yourself! Our LSE LIFE advisers are happy to have a chat with you even before you arrive. Whether you have a particular question about what’s on offer or are just interested in an informal conversation to talk about your thoughts and get an idea of life at LSE: Book a session with us via the LSE Student Hub app, under LSE LIFE Me+LSE Discussion, or if you don’t have access to that yet, just drop us an email at lselife@lse.ac.uk and we’ll arrange a convenient time to meet via Zoom.
Who else can you meet in the LIFE space?
