Admissions
What to have ready, what the process is, and what happens after you submit.
Applications open shortly
Gathering transcripts, having documents translated and obtaining an English test result takes most applicants several weeks. Everything below can be done now, so that the day applications open you are ready rather than starting.
Before you apply
A transcript or certificate for the qualification you are entering with. If you want prior study assessed for credit, bring the course descriptions too — that is a separate assessment and it is worth doing at the same time.
Documents not in English need a translation. This is the step that most often delays an application, because it depends on somebody else's timetable rather than yours.
If English is not your first language. Which tests are accepted and at what score is being confirmed, and the tests themselves are listed on our partners page.
A passport or national identity document, matching the name on your qualifications. Where the names differ, bring the document that connects them.
What happens after you submit
An application is acknowledged, assessed against the published entry requirements for the programme, and answered in writing. If you are not admitted you are told why, and told whether a different level or an earlier programme would take you.
Where you have asked for transfer credit, the credit decision comes with the admission decision rather than after it, so you know the real length and the real cost of your degree before you commit any money.
