Sponsor Status & Educational Oversight

The United Kingdom Visas and Immigration has awarded LSC London Tier 4 Sponsor status.



Applying for entry to the UK on a Student Visa can seem challenging, with all applicants having to comply with strict regulations and also having to ensure that their documents are suitable to meet scrutiny by UK Visas and Immigration, before a student visa is granted. The London School of Commerce (LSC) folds full Tier 4 Sponsor status.


Our Tier 4 Sponsor status means all prospective LSC students will find it easier to successfully apply for a visa to study at LSC in London.


LSC is recognised by the UK Government as one of the most reliable and trusted Higher Education Institutions in Britain – this explains why we have over 3,000 students from over 120 different countries studying at our campuses in London. LSC was one of the first independent educational institutions to gain Tier 4 Sponsor status.

QAA Approved

The London School of Commerce enjoys its own distinctive identity as well as having close links with British Universities. London School of Commerce is required to be Reviewed by the Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education (QAA) and, as it has been successful in each of its QAA Reviews, is entitled to display the “QAA Reviewed Graphic” to assure students of this.

LSC Biometrics System

LSC has an innovative Biometric student attendance system. One of the first colleges in the UK to adopt the system, the London School of Commerce actively tracks student attendance. This means that as one requirement of studying in the UK on a visa is attendance at classes, you can be reassured that UKVI are satisfied with our student administration. The benefit of this Biometric system for the student is that there is an accurate and indisputable record of your attendance at the college, making it easier for us to assist you to provide proof, if required, of the validity and integrity of your studies in London.



Our official UK Tier 4 Sponsor status, and the administrative systems operated by the LSC Group mean that you can have confidence in the whole student journey, from application phase through to the integrity of your UK study experience with LSC in London and on to becoming a graduate of one of our British University partners.
