When you need to apply can vary depending on the course and where you’re applying from. This page will cover those requirements and how it will apply to you.
Overview
We invite new postgraduate students to join us in September and January. There are also some part-time study options starting in May. On the course page, you’ll find the start dates currently available for that course. If there is an application deadline specific to that course, this will be mentioned in the ‘Overview’ section.
The sooner you apply, the higher your chance of getting a place, and the more time you’ll have to prepare for this next step in your life. You should usually hear an update from our Admissions Team within 2 weeks of applying. All application updates are shared via email, but there may be a delay during peak times.
