I have scanned the application several times but couldn't find the reapplicant essay for LBS.
Can somebody confirm if this particular essay does not exist in the class of 2017 app?

I didn't see a set question but the third question - "Is there any other information you believe the Admissions Committee should know about you and your application to London Business School?"

You would probably be best to cover your reapplication here - how you feel you have addressed any shortcomings since the last application - improved gmat etc… I would make sure you speak to it at some point in the application.

Hope this helps.

Has anybody considered submitting a resume with a small picture of him/herself in it?
Does it come across as unprofessional?

Is that the usual way you present your CV in your current country?

In the UK it is not expected to send a picture in with the CV and is very very uncommon for anyone to do so. A picture can never really add anything positive to a CV, only potential negatives if the reviewer has any biases.


I reckon you have two options which would be your best bet:

i.) Submit a 'traditional' UK CV - a good example is the template here - https://www.sbs.ox.ac.uk/sites/default/f ... emplate.pd - try to keep it on one page. This is what I did.

ii). Submit a CV that is typical in your home/current country - LBS will see CVs from across the world given the international diversity of the programme and the other programmes within the school. They will have good knowledge of what to expect from someone with your profile so if this includes a picture - feel free.

Following one of these two options will unlikely have any impact on your potential success. However if you were applying to a continental European school like INSEAD the photo is often expected if not mandatory.

Coming from continental Europe I submitted my CV with a small picture. No harm done....

was wondering if someone can help with this - i've submitted my application online, but while submitting I wasn't able to make the fee payment. I thought I'd do it later, but now I can't even see my application once I login on the london.edu website. I've emailed and called admissions about this already, but haven't heard back. If anyone knows of a way to resolve this please do let me know - I don't want my app to suffer because of a missed fee payment!
I have the same problem, after processing the credit card payment it brought me back to london.edu site with a "page not found", and when I check the payment status it still says the payment not completed.....tried a few times...

Anyone else has the same issue?

Hello everyone! I've been following this thread for a long time, but this is my first time posting.

I've submitted my application just a few minutes ago for R2, and I'm quite nervous! I hope I'm not the only one in this situation!

I had the same issue as well. Called admissions, they helped me do the payment over the phone and sent me a receipt later. But I have a separate question; when I login to my profile on the LBS website, under "my applications" i am not able to see my application; are any of you able to? I have received an email from them that says my application has been submitted, and both recommenders have submitted on time as well.

I am facing the same issue. I have submitted my application and received emails for submission confirmation and fee payment confirmation. Now, after logging in the application page, I am not able to view my application. Any suggestions?

Have you tried https://www.london.edu/login?item=%2fho ... KunotKsUkQ

Then go to "start application/edit application"? its on the options box half way down the page on the right?
