Dear Maria

 

With reference to your request for information under the Freedom of
Information Act, please find below and attached the School’s response:

 

Each applicant that sits the UGAA is considered on his/her merit and in
competition with the rest of the cohort. Each application is viewed
holistically; as well as the UGAA scores the following items are also
taken into consideration - academic achievements and qualifications, the
personal statement, the academic reference and additional social and
educational contextual data. For more information on exactly what
contextual information is used in the admissions decision making process
please refer to the [1]Undergraduate Admissions Policy.

 

Contextual data is also used to inform confirmation decisions and students
that are flagged as Widening Participation may receive additional
consideration when these decisions are made.

 

If you think that the information provided does not meet your request,
contact me on 020 7955 7554 or write to Louise Nadal, School Secretary,
London School of Economics and Political Science, Houghton Street, London,
WC2A 2AE. We will then review the response to your request and get back to
you within 20 working days. You can also contact the Information
Commissioner's Office [2]http://www.ico.gov.uk , though they expect the
internal review to be carried out before receiving a complaint directly.
