SGH Warsaw School of Economics

Founded in 1906, the campus is located at the northern edge of the Mokotów district of Warsaw. You can read more about the institution on the SGH Warsaw School of Economics website

As GO LSE students at SGH Warsaw School of Economics will be part of the CIVICA Engage track, they will be expected to take an Engage course as part of their programme.

The exchange is additional to the requirements of your LSE degree. Having completed the year at SGH Warsaw School of Economics, you will then return to LSE to study the final year of your programme. Your year overseas will not count towards your final degree classification at LSE, but you will be issued with a separate transcript providing details of your results.

SGH Warsaw School of Economics has accommodation available on a first come first served basis. 

Off-campus:

Warsaw, being a big metropolitan city, offers numerous possibilities for off-campus living with accomodation available to suit most student’s budget.

The scheme is open to all second year LSE undergraduate students (or third year BSc Philosophy, Politics and Economics students) who have been accepted onto the CIVICA Engage Track. Generally we require applicants to have passed all of their first year exams (without resits) and to have achieved a 2:1 average across their courses.

Tuition fees

GO LSE students are not required to pay any tuition fees to SGH Warsaw School of Economics  to participate in the exchange. Instead, you will continue to pay tuition fees directly to LSE. Your tuition fee while studying abroad is significantly reduced as compared to when you are on campus. For further information, please visit our fees and funding webpage.

Health Insurance

Though LSE Travel Insurance will cover emergency treatment, however, it won’t cover regular services.
