Programs Open for Admission
- BBA (Hons) — four-year honours with double major
- BS (Hons) — Economics, Finance, Mathematics and Statistics, Social Sciences, Environmental Sciences & Policy, Media Studies
- BFA — Fine Arts / Art and Design
Every program is a four-year honours degree with a double major or a major and a minor, so applicants apply to a degree type (BBA, BS or BFA) rather than to a narrow subject, and choose majors after the first year. Students who missed the June 2026 deadline cannot be admitted mid-year; the only route is the 2027-28 cycle.
Eligibility Criteria
- 12–13 years of schooling, at most one gap year.
- A-Level results in AS, General Paper or other half-credit subjects do not count toward the three principal subjects.
- O-Level, IB, American HSD and A-Level applicants must obtain an IBCC equivalence certificate before registration.
- Intermediate with 60% marks, or an equivalent foreign qualification (IB, American HSD, O/A-Level) with IBCC equivalence of at least 60%.
- A-Level students sitting finals in 2026 may apply provisionally.

Entry Test and Merit
SAT I (1200/1600, 600 in Maths) or the LSE entrance exam, plus interview; BFA adds an art aptitude test. No merit formula is published; the school weighs academic record, test performance and interview together. Entrance test details are emailed only after the application is complete, so submit early rather than waiting for the deadline. Preparation advice is in the LSE entry test guide.
Fee and Scholarships
Only the application form and processing fees (PKR 7,500 each) are published; tuition is not listed on the admissions pages — check the official website. Official scholarships: Need Based (50% of term tuition, 75%+ marks, deadline 15 July), Major Merit (50% for 85%+ or 3 A’s; 25% for 80%+), Minor Merit course waivers and TA-ships.
