I Got In: London School Of Economics

This has truly been one of my best Christmases ever! I didn't want anything, I really didn't. And yet I got more than I could've wanted.

I checked my application tracker on the London School of Economics and Government's website today. As I scrolled down I really didn't think they'd have an answer for me yet. I got an email earlier this week saying staff and faculty would be out of the office until Jan 5th. But there it was waiting for me...an unconditional acceptance, and I was in shock.

Now I have to figure out what I'm going to do...lol...when I should leave...if I should defer...how much money can I save...I'm so excited!!!!

Here's a little info on LSE:

The London School of Economics and Political Science, more commonly referred to as The London School of Economics or LSE, is a specialist college of the University of London in London, England. It was founded in 1895, and officially joined the federal University in 1900 as the Faculty of Economics, beginning to issue its degrees from 1902. Today it is regarded as one of the world's leading academic institutions and remains a specialist single-faculty constituent college of the University, the only such institution in Britain. Located on Houghton Street in Westminster, off the Aldwych and next to the Royal Courts of Justice and Temple Bar, it describes itself as "the world‘s leading social science institution for teaching and research". LSE also has the most international student body of any university in the world today.

The School is a member of the elite Russell Group (referred to as the British equivalent of the Ivy League of the United States), the European University Association, Association of Commonwealth Universities, the Community of European Management Schools and International Companies, The Association of Professional Schools of International Affairs and Universities UK as well as the Golden Triangle of British Universities, and most recently the 'G5 Group' of Britain's five leading universities.

LSE has a long list of alumni and former staff spanning many walks of life from international politics, business, law and finance to authors, musicians, actors and internationally recognised academics. Among them are sixteen Nobel Prize winners in Economics, Peace and Literature. Most recently, this list was boosted in 2008 by the awarding of the Nobel Prize for Economics to Paul Krugman.
