Economics Essay Competition Overview 2026-27
£0.00
A complete guide breaking down 9 Economics essay competitions available to students in Years 11–13 in the UK, including competitions run by the John Locke Institute, LSE, Cambridge’s Marshall Society, Oxford Economics Society, and more.
For each competition, you’ll find:
Who is eligible to enter
The deadline
Word count requirements
Prizes
How difficult it realistically is to get shortlisted
Whether I think it is actually worth your time
The guide also includes a monthly deadline calendar, so you can keep track of upcoming competitions without worrying about missing an important deadline. I’ll also explain which competitions are most suitable for Year 11, Year 12 and Year 13 students.
More importantly, I’ll show you how to use essay competitions to strengthen your UCAS Personal Statement, rather than simply writing “I participated in X competition” and leaving it at that.
All information has been checked against official sources, so you can clearly understand what you are entering, when the deadlines are, and whether each competition is worth investing your time in.
Free Item Note: When you reach the billing section in Checkout, you can type any placeholder text (like '123 Main St' or random letters) to quickly pass through, as the system will not verify the address or postcode.
