How to apply

You can either complete and return the application form by post, or you can now apply online.

To request access to the online application facility, click –--here--- [New Window] and complete the request form.

Application by post

Complete the application form (pdf; New Window) or you may request a prospectus to be posted to you [New Window]. You will find an application form stapled in the middle of the prospectus and submit it by post (not by fax) together with the fee and all the documentation listed on the form.

Whichever way you choose to apply, you are strongly advised to submit your application as early as possible. Please do not wait until the final deadline date, especially for a programme which has a limited number of registrations that can be accepted each year.

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 notes accompanying each application form and/or these Guidance notes for online applications (pdf: 8pgs, 35KB) and that you 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 required 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.

When to apply

You can submit your application at any time of the year. However, as the number of registrations which can be accepted are limited for some programmes, you are strongly advised to apply as early as possible.

If you wish to register in this current intake of students, the latest date by which your application must be received by the Postgraduate Admissions Office is given in the relevant programme details.

Please note that, whilst it is sometimes possible to consider an application received after the published deadline date, there can be no guarantee that your application will be accepted. You may be required to wait until the following year before you are able to register.
