Dear all,

Since the length of the dissertation on my LLM has implications for my Master's degree in my home university, I am asking this question:

Can you write a longer dissertation for your LSE LLM, e.g. for 20,000 words instead of 10,000? I can only see that the 10.000 words dissertation is compulsory for the LLM, but I have seen many other LLM universities where you can write a longer dissertation.

Otherwise, I will have to write an additional master's thesis at my home university afterwards.

I will naturally contact LSE myself later on - but I first wanted to know if any other people can help to answer.

Thank you for your time, and good luck with your applications.

Apparently not, unless I’m missing something there.
