When I arrive

Can someone meet me at the airport?
Yes. We can arrange an airport transfer. This service is provided by experienced individuals who will take you to your Hotel/Host family or Student Residence. At the airport arrivals area, look out for a person holding a card with your name on it.

Is it possible for me to come to LSC before going to my accommodation?
Yes, if your arrival time in London is not at night or the weekend. From Monday - Friday you are welcome to come and meet with us before going on to your accommodation. If you are not too tired you could even the LSC English Test!

What will happen on my first day?
First of all, you should come to our Reception area, where you will receive a warm welcome to LSC. You can then take the LSC English Test. This helps us to place you in the right class. It has two parts: a written test, and a short meeting with the Principal. We will then discuss your immediate plans with you and ensure that you are happy with all the arrangements.

We will give you the LSC Student Handbook, which contains useful information about the College, your course and living in London.

You may be able to join your class on the first day, but if there is not time, don't worry, you can join the next day!

How do you decide my level?
You will take the LSC Level Test. This is in two parts. First, we give you a short written test. Second, you will meet our Principal so that we can understand your objectives and plans for your time in London.
