Academic Registrar's Division

• We are an informed and inspiring voice to our prospective students; a welcoming and friendly face to our new students; a knowledgeable and caring presence to our current students; and a proud and supportive friend to our graduating students. To our colleagues across LSE we are a professional and constructive source of help, support and advice.

• We use our professional expertise to deliver personalised engagement and administrative services to students, staff and other stakeholders.

• We make effective, efficient use of the systems and resources available to enable a very wide range of stakeholder experiences.  At our best, we facilitate excellent individual student experiences, ensuring that students can access the full range of opportunities the School has to offer.

• We provide expertise as the business process owners for core student-supporting regulations, policies, processes and systems, and are responsible for providing leadership to the School’s wider administrative community for their maintenance, application and development.

• We strive to create a working environment for both ARD staff and colleagues around the School that promotes wellbeing and inclusivity.
