The change of name of the merged University was approved by the Privy Council. In 1848 Charles Blomfield, the Bishop of London, called upon the clergy to establish evening classes to improve the moral, intellectual and spiritual condition of young men in London.

In 1860 the classes moved to Sussex Hall, the former Livery Hall of the Bricklayers' Company, in Leadenhall Street. By this time, some 800 students were enrolled annually.

London Metropolitan University operations are overseen by a board of governors comprising external members and senior administrative and academic staff. In July 2008 it was reported that a financial crisis was looming for the London Metropolitan University. London Met had been misreporting data on student dropouts for several years and, consequently, the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) was proposing to claw back at least £15 million for the overpayment in 2008-9. In February 2009 it was revealed that London Met had been overpaid £58 million by HEFCE, who were seeking to recover the money. The British government announced in May 2009 that there would be an independent inquiry; exploring the possibility that HEFCE had colluded with London Met by failing to query implausibly low drop-out rates. That inquiry concluded in November 2009 and was reported to cast responsibility to Brian Roper, other senior administrators, and the Board of Governors. Following conclusion of the report, the chair of HEFCE called on "senior staff" and the entire Board of Governors to resign, noting that HEFCE was not convinced that the London Metropolitan University management could effectively safeguard public funds. After the deadline indicated by HEFCE chief executive Alan Langlands had passed, there were ruminations among staff and ministers that HEFCE could withdraw funding, effectively forcing the university to close.
