Admission and the academic year
Registration with the University of London and enrolment with the academy are two separate acts, and the London calendar does not move for anyone. This page prints the dates, the fees as the University publishes them, and the papers to bring to a first meeting.
The cycle
| When | What has to happen |
|---|---|
| 3 June 2026 | Applications open for the November 2026 intake. |
| 1 October 2026 | Applications close. A file that is not complete on this date does not go. |
| 1 November 2026 | Registration deadline. Register by November and the May session is open to you — this is the hinge of the whole route. |
| 9 December 2026 | Applications open for the April 2027 intake, whose first sitting is the following October. |
| May 2027 | First examination session, sat at a centre in Dhaka. This is the sitting the academy is currently admitting for. |
Dates printed in crimson are hard. Miss one and the next opportunity is the following year's sitting — there is no late window and no appeal on lateness.
Fees

Outside this table: the examination centre's own fee, paid to the venue; textbooks, around £350 a year; and the academy's tuition, quoted to you in writing before you register. London also states that its fees rise about five per cent a year, and that you pay as you progress rather than in one payment.
Documents
- 01SSC and HSC certificates and mark sheets, or A-Level statements of result — originals plus one photocopy set.

- 03Passport — or the renewal receipt if it is at the office. The name on it becomes the name on the London degree.
- 04Any IELTS or English-language qualification you hold, with the test report form.
