To obtain a verification of qualifications of a current or former student of the School, employers, prospective employers, screening agencies and other organisations need to submit the request by email to the Registry section of Student Services Centre at registry@lse.ac.uk|. Please note the disclosure cannot be obtained over the phone.
Before we can process your request we will need to receive the student's written consent to make the disclosure in accordance with the Data Protection Act (1998)|. If the consent is not provided, we will not be able to verify the student data.
Please note that we cannot provide personal (character) references for our current or former students. Such requests should be directed to the appropriate academic department within the School and will be dealt with at their discretion. If we receive such a request, we will pass it on to the department, which may delay the response.
Please also note that we may need to query some requests if the data provided is not complete or does not match our records. Appropriate requests via email will normally be processed within 3 working days. We will confirm via return email confirmation of the student's dates of attendance and award gained.
If you need to verify qualifications gained during LSE external study, please contact External Study| office.
