Executive MSc in Cities Scholarships

Funding opportunities for Executive MSc in Cities applicants of all nationalities

The LSE Cities Scholarships, Bloomberg Scholarships for Public Service, and LSE Cities Alumni Scholarships are intended to provide financial assistance to outstanding Executive MSc in Cities applicants who would not otherwise be able to meet the full cost of tuition.

As only a limited number of awards are available, we use a selection process that considers both the quality of the applicant and their financial need. The former will be judged on the information provided in the programme application (submitted through LSE Graduate Admissions) and the latter will be assessed according to information provided in the Executive MSc in Cities Scholarship Application Form.

The deadline to apply to the 2024/25 is 12.00pm (Noon) on Monday 8 April 2024.
