The London School of Economics, as it’s usually known, is the only university in the UK dedicated entirely to the social sciences. It’s a world leader in history, maths and philosophy, and has educated more billionaires than any other institution in Europe. LSE is located in central London, roughly between Covent Garden and the City, so it’s easy to get to from anywhere - however, student accommodation in Camden, Holborn, Spitalfields or Southwark are closest of all.
