It is essential that all students should have an adequate command of the English language to benefit from studies at LSHTM.  Once you have submitted your application the Admissions Team will check your English language ability. For further details please visit our General Entry Requirements page.

We will consider applications without English test results.  If an offer is made, it will be listed a condition of the offer if you will be required to take an English test.

It is extremely important that applicants required to take an English language test do so as soon as possible. 

For all students requiring a Student Visa, the LSHTM English requirements reflect the UK Home Office requirements.  You will note that only certain nationals of certain countries are exempt from the English condition. If the UK Home Office does not consider your home country, or the country you were taught in to be majority English speaking, you will be required to take an English test.

The countries the Home Office consider to be majority English speaking are: Antigua and Barbuda, Australia, Barbados, The Bahamas, Belize, Canada*, Dominica, Grenada, Guyana, Republic of Ireland, Jamaica, Malta, New Zealand, St Kitts and Nevis , St Lucia, St Vincent and the Grenadines, Trinidad and Tobago, United Kingdom, United States of America

* Canadian nationals are exempt from the English language requirement, but those who completed the equivalent of a bachelor’s degree in Canada are not exempt.

If you do not achieve the minimum required English language score you must improve your English and take another test.  You will not be able to register at LSHTM if your English language ability does not meet the minimum requirements.
