From 2026/27, the Controlled Access Courses list will be available through a searchable Moodle database rather than a PDF document. The database will allow you to search and filter courses to help you find the information most relevant to your course selection.
The Controlled Access Courses database will be available via Moodle.
Please note that you will not be able to access the database until 2026/27 Course Guides have been published in August 2026.
Accessing the Moodle database
To access the Controlled Access Courses database, you must:
- Complete pre-enrolment
- Create and activate your LSE IT account
- Log in to Moodle using your LSE credentials
- Self-enrol onto the Controlled Access Courses Database Moodle page
You must also complete pre-enrolment before you can make course selections in LSE for You (LfY).
When will the database be available?
The Moodle database will be available between August 2026 and February 2027 to support both course selection periods:
- Autumn Term course selection
- Winter Term course change
Students should always refer to the relevant Course Guide for the most up-to-date information on course availability and entry requirements.
During the transition to Moodle
While the new Moodle database is being prepared for 2026/27, the previous PDF version of the Controlled Access Courses list will remain available below.
