Deferred Entry
LST is happy to consider applications for deferred entry, where appropriate. Decisions will be made according to the usual criteria. However, the School reserves the right to withdraw a course during an academic year. Any applicant chooses to defer his/her entry should notify the School in advance.

Clearing
LST aims to ensure that all candidates are provided with clear and accurate information throughout the clearing process so that applications can be dealt with promptly and efficiently.

The School will only offer a place to those applicants who are not already holding an offer elsewhere. If the School is approached by a candidate who is already admitted to another institution, they must be released into Clearing before an offer is made. If the other institution refuses to release the candidate, LST will not continue to negotiate with them.
