Hi All,
I hope you're doing well! I’m reaching out to seek your advice regarding the late application process at LBS. I recently connected with the admissions team, and after a call, they confirmed that I can still submit a late application for the current intake. However, they mentioned that scholarships may not be available at this stage.
I wanted to understand how late applications are perceived and whether it’s worth applying now or waiting for Round 1 of the 2026 intake.
If your profile is strong and unique, there might be a chance, as the school must have kept some flexibility for exceptional candidates. However, seats are limited at this stage, and scholarships are typically already allocated, so if funding is a priority, that could be a drawback. Applying now makes sense if your application is ready and you’re confident in your story, especially if this intake aligns with your career goals and personal timeline. That said, waiting until Round 1 of the next cycle could give you a strategic edge, more scholarship options, better admissions odds, and time to strengthen any part of your application (Essays, leadership experience, test scores).
If you’d like a quick profile review or want to talk through the trade-offs in more detail, feel free to reach out, happy to help you figure out the best path forward.
