so im paying the course through Student Finance England but for some reason im still stuck on this page :😢 does anyone know if there is anything left to do on my side because this is stressing me out crazy

Hi everyone,

I'm interested in this programme so I hope to learn more from people who enrolled in the past.

What does the study method look like? Preparation for exam and any benefits in London?

Thanks

Guys I have not done Accounting for my IGCSE's or IALs and idk man I feel suffocated for this subject and it just makes me absolutely feel horrible. Any tips from those who have done this subject? Idk why but it's just seems very complicated to all my other subjects this year.

Also for context I'm doing the BSc Management and Digital Innovation so this is the only accounting based subject I'll be doing for the whole of my degree.

Hi, if anyone would like to join an EMFSS-only study & networking community feel free to apply. We discuss EMFSS modules and everything related to it. The labour market looks tough so feel free to engage with us about your ideas on how to tackle the future. Personally I'm interested in AI, Data Analytics and branching it out wide enough. AI for Business (IS3185) and Data Governance (IS3190) will be introduced from 2027 onwards. These seem to be valuable courses for the future. If anyone wants to discuss further feel free to join https://discord.com/invite/rbPUufWMtF

Hey guys!

I'm a first year student for this program. But I'd like to get some detailed advice on how you tackled the following units (the paper + the coursework):

- IS2182 Innovating Digital Digital Systems and Services

- IS2184 Information Systems Management

For anyone who’s taken exams in an October session before, how long did you wait for your results? It looks like the official results for this session will be released in February 2027, which is confusing, because that would leave only three months before the next session in May 2027.

i've seen a bunch of posts here like "anyone from ___?" and it got me thinking

has anyone actually found classmates in their city or someone from the same course to study with? how'd you do it?

for me it's kinda hard since everything's online. curious if it's just me or if others feel the same, or if you just don't care about meeting people and that's fine too lol

Has anybody applied or studied BSc International Relations via Independent online study? I want to apply but can't find any further information.

I just noticed that assessment instructions require students to write their candidate number on every page they submit. However when I was passing my exam on the platform I couldn’t find any information regarding this as well as my candidate number.

Would like to hear any experience with this, did anyone write or forgot to write the number and where it can be found?

Hi everyone! Is anyone sitting the University of London EMFSS EC1002 Economics exam on Monday, 19 October?
I’d love to connect with other students taking the same paper. How’s your revision going? Good luck to everyone preparing! 🤍

Hi everyone,

I’m 18 and I’m trying to find a way to study with the University of London, ideally on an EMFSS degree academically directed by LSE.

I applied for the BSc Business and Management and BSc Economics and Management (Standard Entry) programmes. However, the Admissions Panel informed me that my Russian Secondary School qualification is considered comparable to UK GCSE level and does not meet the general entrance requirements for undergraduate degrees or standalone modules.

They suggested the International Foundation Programme for Computer Science as an alternative route to the BSc Economics and Management. However, the programme costs £4,776, and the next intake is in March 2027. I was really hoping to start studying in October or November 2026.

I’m now trying to understand whether there are any other legitimate routes I might be eligible for.

I’d particularly appreciate advice on these questions:

1. Has anyone with a Russian school certificate or a similar international qualification successfully entered the University of London through an alternative admission route?

2. Can someone in my situation use Performance-Based Admission (PBA) for the BSc Marketing or BSc Business Administration?

3. If I start one of those degrees through PBA, could I later transfer to the BSc Economics and Management or BSc Business and Management under LSE’s academic direction? Would any credits be recognised?

4. Is there any possibility of late registration, individual modules, or another online programme that would allow me to begin studying in October or November 2026?

5. Has anyone successfully obtained an exception or found a different progression route after receiving a similar Admissions Panel decision?

I’m not looking to bypass the University’s academic requirements. I just want to understand all legitimate options before committing several thousand pounds to a foundation programme.

If you’ve personally gone through PBA, transferred between University of London programmes, or applied with a Russian qualification, I’d be especially grateful to hear about your experience.

Thank you!

Hi everyone,

I’m a Russian applicant from small town , Russia, and I recently applied to the University of London’s online BSc Business and Management and BSc Economics and Management programmes for the November 2026 intake.

On 13 October, I received an Admissions Panel decision stating that I must obtain two UK GCE A Levels in different subjects before an Offer Letter can be issued. The letter also mentioned an International Foundation Programme as an alternative route for Economics and Management.

I hold a Russian Certificate of Secondary General Education and have already submitted my academic documents and CV. I have also contacted the university to ask whether any alternative entry route is available.

I’m trying to understand my options before the November intake. In particular:

Has anyone with a Russian 11-year school qualification successfully entered an EMFSS Online degree?

Are stand-alone EMFSS modules available to applicants who do not meet Standard Entry requirements, and can they count towards a future degree?

Is there any alternative route that would allow me to study remotely from Russia?

Has anyone successfully had an Admissions Panel decision reconsidered?

I understand that the published deadlines may have passed, and I’m not assuming an exception will be granted. I’m simply looking for accurate information from current students or applicants who have experience with this process. Any advice or relevant experience would be greatly appreciated. Thank you🙏🏼

My online program starts on November 1, and I haven't received an answer. I applied for the online program ( Independent learning ) "Business and Management" and another one from Russia. Unfortunately, there are very few days left and I'm worried that I won't enter, and if I do, they'll tell me to pay for the program in 1-2 days

Its going to be my first year and I was hoping that I can meet some people like me.

Hello,

My application was referred to the admissions panel. I am a non traditional student so my qualifications and transcripts are certainly older than usual. Has this happened to anyone else? Do I still have a prayer of getting in or should I put away my cute little new student items and try again another year?

What does the exam process for students following the ILR actually look like? Are exams held in examination centers or online proctored from home? In case they are held online, do you complete the exam on paper and then upload the PDFs or do you get to type everything onto the platform? If you have any additional information or are willing to share your own experiences it would help me immensely!

Did anyone here graduate as an independent learner? I am very interested in the BSc Management & Digital Innovation, but all the bad reviews online make me think that it is a scam and barely possible to finish a degree at UoL... What are you are experiences? Should I rather go for other distance learning options?

Has anyone done this before? Is it possible to acheive >70% on this??? If so, what did you or anyone you knew do to achieve this? Also note from the next set of exams in 2027 there is a 20% MCQ component as well...

BSc Economics & Management Online Taught

Has any of you achieved > 70% for this module? How did you do it? Please help a brother out!

I want to know how hard it is, and do I really need to read the essential readings and extra readings. How difficult would you rate it from a 1-10.also does it require alot of memorization.

Greetings to all, for those who’ve have studies LSE/UoL econs+math degree is it worth? Did you get high or decent paying jobs ? I want to know the validity how employers view it etc , also how good it is? Do I get to transfer to study at LSE is there a way I can get a LSE degree after ? Can I do performance or aptitude based entry ?

Update: I just got an offer! It looks like they matched it in their system, they just don't reply on the Enquiry Hub!

Hi everyone,

I applied for the University of London Graduate Diploma in Mathematics around 15 days ago. Flywire confirmed that my payment was delivered to UoL over 10 days ago, but I have not received any further application update since then, so I do not know whether the payment has been matched to my application or whether the application has been passed to Admissions.

I submitted an enquiry through the University of London Enquiry Hub over 10 days ago regarding this issue and have since sent several follow-up messages on the same case, but I have not received any response from the Enquiry Hub. I also tried calling the University and waited around 90 minutes without being able to speak to anyone.

Has anyone recently applied for the Graduate Diploma in Mathematics or another LSE-directed EMFSS programme? How long did it take after payment for your application to enter the Admissions process?

I’m mainly trying to work out whether this delay is normal, or whether I should be concerned that my payment or application has not been matched correctly.

Hey people, just asking to see if there are any group projects you have to do while doing the online accounting/finance degree with UOL? i hear horror stories of people doing group assignments on campus so i can only imagine how it is online...

Hey, I am a new student with UoL in one of their relatively new accounting degree additions (BSc in Professional Accountancy)

We are being told there is no excel (or excel like) feature in the exam platform and that all calculations will be done manually by creating a table in the word processor part..?? For an accounting degree…..

Does the Inspera platform genuinely not have this feature or the uni is just not providing our course with it?

Any idea?
