Hi everyone,

I’m a graduate offer holder at the London School of Economics and Political Science and I’m from one of the Gulf countries.

Due to the recent regional conflict, my government sponsor has significantly reduced its budget and has suspended scholarships for this year. As a result, I am no longer able to secure funding for my studies.

Would this generally be considered a sufficient reason to request a deferral of admission for one year? Has anyone been in a similar situation and successfully received a deferral because of unexpected changes in sponsorship or government funding?

I would really appreciate hearing about your experiences.

Thank you.
