The application form is designed to be completed online and submitted electronically to the university. Information can be saved and edited before submission. Guidance Notes are also available at the above link. The Notes contain useful information which will be of help to you later in the year should you have any queries.

Deadlines for Submission of Applications

If you wish your application to be considered for any available funding, you must submit it by the deadline stated on the Funding page. Please note that there is no separate application for funding. You should indicate on your application that you wish to be considered for funding. This involves ticking the box that states "I hope to or have already obtained funding for my studies" on the funding section of the online application form.  For those not seeking funding, late applications, especially from overseas candidates, will be considered through to 1 August. Please note that funding for postgraduate study is limited and fairly competitive.
