Apply to study at the LSO
There are two ways to apply to the LSO depending on whether you choose to study for your osteopathy degree on a full-time or part-time basis. Both routes will allow you to become a registered osteopath.
All students are enrolled on the MOst degree course. At the start of the third year of the full-time course or fourth year of the part-time course, you have the option to switch to the BOst degree. Your tutors will be able to help you make this decision.

- Apply via UCAS
- To apply for the LSO’s undergraduate MOst course you need to fill in our institution code which is A60 (for Anglia Ruskin which is the validating body) and course code B310.
