International Exchange Year
Students successful in securing a place on the optional exchange will spend a full academic year studying on one of the leading business programmes in Asia, Europe or the USA. Students carrying any failed or deferred assessments for first or second year courses studied at LSE will not be eligible for the exchange. The exchange year will not count towards the classification of the BSc in Management programme and courses studied abroad will not be credit bearing, however the exchange year will be recognised on students’ LSE transcripts providing they meet the standards set by their host institution. Partner schools will issue a separate transcript to confirm marks and grades achieved on courses studied overseas. Students will not have the option to resit assessment they have failed or been unable to attempt while overseas. Following the exchange, students will return to LSE to complete the third year of the BSc in Management programme.
