If you cannot send all the documentation with your application form, please enclose a letter with the form giving the reasons. University of London must receive your application plus all documentary evidence and references in London by 15 June – if you intend to take your first examination in May (of the following year).

If your application form or documentary evidence/references are received after this date, the University may not be able to consider your application in time for you to register by the deadline for the next examination. You might have to postpone the first examination until the next sitting.

The University will acknowledge receipt of your application form and send you a student number to use as a reference whenever you contact the University.

Everyone who applies is allocated a number. You should receive an acknowledgement within three weeks of posting your application, but if you do not please contact the Postgraduate Admissions Office. Please give your full name, the qualification for which you have applied and the date you posted your form to help the University in identify your application.

You are asked to note that if there is a delay in sending in any of the documentation or your references, the University will have to wait to receive them before begin considering your application. This is because the University need to have as much information about you as possible before reach a decision.

In order to ensure your application is processed and a decision taken on your application as quickly as possible you are asked to ensure that you:

a) read the accompanying notes for the application form and follow all the instructions given before you answer each question.

b) take your time completing the application. It is important that you provide all the information we require in order that full consideration can be given to your application.

c) answer each of the questions asked. Please do not leave a question blank.

d) submit all the necessary documentation required in support of your application. Please note that failure to provide this documentation will inevitably delay the final decision being made on your application. If any item of supporting documentation is unavailable, you must inform the Postgraduate Admissions Office explaining the reason(s) why. They will then write advising you of the steps you need to take in order for your application to be processed and a final decision taken.
