Selection Process

Applications submitted by the December funding competition deadline are reviewed in December-January and those applicants can usually expect to receive a decision in February if they are successful.

Applications received after the funding deadline are considered on a rolling basis as they are received. Decisions will be made within 8 weeks of receipt wherever possible.

We strongly advise that applicants submit as early as possible as we receive a large number of applications for a limited number of places, and these may be filled before the advertised deadline.

It is possible that all places will be filled before the advertised deadline. If this occurs, the course entry in the online prospectus will be labelled as "closed".
