The Apply Now button on the right will take you to the Applicant Portal. There, you can create and submit your application and supporting documents, and you can also request your references.
An application is only complete when:

If you miss the deadlines specified in this section, you will not be able to submit your application.
We operate a gathered field for applications (i.e. all applications are considered together after the closing date). Applications are accepted between September and early December (in line with the funding deadline), with individuals that are shortlisted invited to interviews that are held in mid December or early January. Gates US candidates have an earlier closing date of October, with interviews held shortly afterwards.
For those interviewed, decisions are typically communicated within 3-4 weeks following the interview.
Applicants applying after the December deadline will only be considered if there are remaining places following the interviews in December/January.
Selection Process
Applications are considered after the funding or course deadline has passed.
Applications for funding are assessed following the funding deadline in December and interviews are held in early January. Applicants who apply by this deadline can usually expect to receive a decision on their admission to the Department in February and funding awards are then announced by Cambridge funders from March onwards.
