Wherever possible do not send paper documents, but instead use online verification services such as Digitary, CHESICC (in P.R.China), eScrip-Safe etc, to share your transcripts and proof of qualifications. You can also ask your institution to email your documents to us directly at graduate.documents@lse.ac.uk. If you do send paper documents, please be aware that these will take longer to process.
Our postal address is:

If you are sending your documents via a parcel delivery service who cannot deliver to a PO Box number, please use the alternative address of:

Please note we operate a five day turnaround time in processing incoming post, which may mean that your documents are not processed immediately.
Please allow at least five working days from the date we received your items before contacting us, to give us time to process them. At peak times of year, the turnaround time is likely to be longer.
You can check our current processing times online. You are also reminded that documents sent to LSE are non-returnable, and you will not be able to retrieve them. In particular, do not send us your original degree certificate - use the proof of degree form or obtain a certified copy.
Please include your full name and application number in any correspondence.
