The cost of education remains a significant financial challenge for many families. Seemingly small increases can add up over decades, especially with several years of static or declining wages.

Tuition fees​​​​​​
If you are a new international student and not study full time in United Kingdom nor Switzerland and plan to start your studies in this academic year, your tuition fees are likely to be in line with the international rate. Read more about our fees here.

Living Costs
LAS focuses on international students studying in the Hybrid program of SIMI Swiss, so it does not enroll full-time students in the UK or Switzerland. If you wish to study full-time in Switzerland with SIMI Swiss, please contact SIMI Swiss directly

Additional costs
Some programs also involve additional costs, for example studying abroad or compulsory field courses. You should make sure you are aware of these costs early on in your application process. Check our degree finder for information on any additional costs for your chosen program. You can speak to staff in our admissions offices for more details.

1. Complete the Free Application for Financial Aid (AFA)
It is important to complete the Application for Financial Aid each year even if you do not think you will qualify for financial aid. SIMI Swiss and OTHM will use the information supplied on the AFA to determine your eligibility for grants, scholarships, work-study awards, and student loans. Submit your AFA as early as before the intake begins and remember that SIMI Swiss award funds on a first-come, first-served basis.

2. Review Your Student Scholarship Appraisal (SSA)
Once you complete the AFA, the Department of Admission will send you a SSA. This report summarizes the information you provided on your AFA and estimates your scholarship.

3. Pay the application fee
You will pay the Application fee and wait for receiving the Letter of Acceptant (LOA)

4. Receive an LOA
Receive your Letter of Acceptance (LOA) from The London Academy of Sciences

5. Complete your Application
You have now received a scholarship from SIMI Swiss and have started completing your admission documents

Yes. You will need to submit a separate application in addition to required materials and an application fee for each program you would like to apply to. You will also have to send a separate portfolio, or schedule an audition if required, for each of those applications. If you are accepted to more than one program at the London Academy of Sciences, you will then have to choose one program as your major.

All funds for education are available to international students only (not study full time in the United Kingdom and Switzerland). International students are eligible for institutional funds (scholarships and grants), but these funds are limited, and awarding is very competitive. The scholarships do not cover a student’s entire tuition. All awards are based on merit.

Bachelor degrees typically take 3 years to complete, while Master of Arts/ Master of Sciences/ MBA programs vary from one to two years. The Doctoral (DBA, PhD) Program is over three years.

The notification period for the admission decision will be approximately 1 week for students that applied by the regular deadline. There may be cases, however, where the decision will come earlier or take longer. We send decision letters out at different times, depending on each program’s review schedule and when required materials for the student’s file are received. There is no significance attached to receiving your notification earlier or later than other students that have applied.
