How to apply
How your application is considered
IMPORTANT: Please note that we will only be considering applications where the English language requirement for at least entry onto our pre-sessional English course has already been met.
Minimum requirement for consideration is IELTS 6.0 with no component below 6.
Applications are mainly considered on the basis of an assessment of past and predicted academic achievements, the academic reference(s) and any other supplementary evidence that supports the application. Once we have an application that is ready for a decision, the admissions tutor (often the Programme Director) will relay the decision to the admissions team, who will send you this decision.
Please note that your application is usually received by the School 24 to 48 hours after the time you submit it. If you have not provided documentation that allows the admissions tutor to make a decision, we will contact you.
