International Students

Welcome to International Students

A dedicated admissions team, clear support at every step and a truly global community ready to welcome you.

DLD College London warmly welcomes international students from more than 60 nationalities. Our dedicated international admissions team supports each student and family from the first enquiry through to arrival, making the journey to studying in London as clear and reassuring as possible. As a co-educational, independent day and boarding school for students aged 13 to 19, we combine a central London location with modern on-campus boarding and attentive pastoral care.

The support we offer

Our international admissions team helps families understand the UK education system, entry and visa requirements, and international payments. We aim to make every stage straightforward, answering questions along the way and guiding students towards the right programme for their age, background and goals. We also meet prospective students in their own countries, so support can begin long before arrival in London.

Range of Programmes

We offer a range of programmes including Year 9, GCSEs, A Levels, BTECs, and the Foundation Programme for progression to UK and international universities. We also offer the Academic Preparation Course which builds English language and academic skills, and the British Boarding School Experience, a shorter immersive programme. With January and September start dates, students can join us at the point that suits them best.

A global community

International students quickly become part of a diverse, welcoming community. With students from more than 60 nationalities, five houses and more than 50 co-curricular clubs, DLD reflects our ethos of Development, Leadership and Diversity. Full-board on-campus boarding and 24-hour pastoral care mean international boarders enjoy a genuine home from home in the heart of the city.
