在查LSE的官方网站时找不到自己想要的信息，在FAQ那些搜集了一些可用信息，看看有没有你正在疑惑的问题。

1. Whatreferences do I need to provide?

You need to provide aminimum of two references. Which type ofreferences depends on when you have graduated/will graduate:  

If you graduated within the last 5 years and areapplying to a full-time MSc: minimum oftwo academic referencesrequired.

If you graduated 5-10 years ago or areapplying to the part-time MSc: minimum of one academic reference and either an academic or professional reference.

If you graduated 10+ years ago: a minimum or tworeferences, professional or academic.

.2. DoI need to submit a GMAT or GRE test? What score is required?

Submission of a score is mandatory for all applicants to theMSc Finance and Economicsprogramme.

Submissionof a score is also mandatory for any applicant without a UKundergraduate degree who is applying to MSc Finance (Full-time), MSc Finance andPrivate Equity and MSc Risk and Finance. Applicantswith UK undergraduate degrees are still recommended to submit a GMAT or GREscore if applying to these programmes, in order to make their application morecompetitive.

A score is not required or especially recommended forMSc Finance (Part-time) although applicants with weak quantitative backgrounds areencouraged to supply a score if they are able to do so.

There is no minimum scorerequirement. However competitive applicants will be looking for total scores of high 600s or more, witha quantitative section scoreof 85% or more.

3. Iswork experience a requirement to apply?

Workexperience (either through internships or full employment) is not a requirement for any of our full-timeMScs.
However, applicants whohave some professional experience should include this in their application, asit may strengthen their application. All applications are considered on a numberof factors. Work experience can enhance an already academically strongapplication but is not a replacement for meeting the minimum academicrequirement.

For the MSc Finance(Part-time) programme
a key part of a successfulapplication relates to an applicant’s work experience. The SelectionCommittee looks for students who will be working and living in or near London,in or around the financial sector (broadly defined) from the start date of theprogramme. Applicants who cannot demonstrate they will be in this position whenthey apply will be at a significant disadvantage. Having 2-5 years of work experience is particularly advantageous; however, wemake offers are made to applicants with significantly more work experience aswell as to those just starting their career. Each year the Part-time classincludes students with a range of different levels of work experience.
