Unlike the majority of UK student newspapers, London Student competes with other student-led publications for a readership. The newspapers and magazines of the constituent colleges of the University of London complement the newspaper's coverage of events. Although the college magazines, such as UCL's Pi, King's College London's Roar and Queen Mary's Cub, generally offer a different style of coverage to London Student, there is genuine competition in terms of breaking news from three weekly newspapers: Felix at Imperial College,The Beaver at LSE and The Founder at Royal Holloway.

Sennet was the direct predecessor of London Student. It was published from 1959. Its first editor was Jean Rook, later best known for her long association with the Daily Express where she was nicknamed the "first lady of Fleet Street".

Extensive, though incomplete, archives of both newspapers are held at both the University of London's library, and the British Library Newspaper section in Colindale.
