You must upload a CV to the Applicant Portal as part of your application.

A transcript is an official summary of your academic record and the marks you have obtained to date. You will need to provide academic transcripts and certificates for each degree you have taken.  If you are currently studying, you can provide an interim or unofficial transcript in your application. We will need a copy of the final transcript if we make you an offer.

If you have already applied for a scholarship and the awarding body has written to you, you can provide details in your application. If you're made an offer to study, you'll need to upload your funding letter to your Self-Service account.

Reasons for Applying (1500 characters)

Students are not assigned to pre-specified projects. They are expected to propose an area or topic, and will be accepted only if an appropriate and willing supervisor is available. Applicants should therefore prepare a statement of proposed research of no more than 3000 words (this is different from a personal statement) indicating their intended topic and research strategy. This should: show an understanding of existing work in the field, identify an area for new work, have concrete goals and deliverables for the first year, and indicate that you know how to achieve them.

IELTS/TOEFL

Some courses may ask you to include samples of your written work. This helps departments to assess your knowledge and the level at which you are working.
