How to Apply

There is no separate application for funding. You may indicate on your application for MA or PhD that you wish to be considered for funding by selecting the option "I hope to or have already obtained funding for my studies" in the Funding section. Applications are made through the University’s Admissions Office using the online application system. You must submit your MA/PhD application by the published deadline (Friday 15 February 2013) if you wish to be considered for funding.

Important Note
YOU MUST ENSURE THAT YOU ENTER ACCURATELY ALL YOUR UNDERGRADUATE AND, IF RELEVANT, POSTGRADUATE DEGREE RESULTS (with percentages) BEFORE THE CLOSING DATE. Other international qualifications will be assessed. If results are not entered, we will not be able to consider your application for funding. You should aim to submit your application several days in advance of the published closing date to enable time for references to be sought and a decision to be made on your application.

Notification of Funding Outcome

All applications for funding will be ranked in February and everyone will notified in March.
