Information session
Each year the British Embassy, in association with SLSB and alumni societies, organises an information event in the course of which prospective students are given in-depth information concerning the application process, studying at a British university and living in the UK. As far as possible, they are given the opportunity to meet students from Luxembourg currently enrolled at a British university. Prospective students are strongly advised to attend that event.
This year, this event is held online on 21st September at 18.00. Attendance is free but a registration is required. Please see Orientation@LGL for further details.
How to apply
The application process is lengthy and complex. It involves selecting courses and institutions, obtaining an informative reference, writing a carefully researched and thought-through personal statement, completing an electronic application form, sitting a language test (e.g. IELTS, CAE, CPE, TOEFL), sitting a special admissions test (e.g. for studies in medicine, dentistry and veterinary science, and selected other subjects), attending interviews or preparing portfolios. For advice and assistance, students are requested to contact Simone Biewer at LGL-SePAS (by appointment or in the weekly contact hour) as they are likely to need substantial help with the electronic application process.
