Note to prospective students
The Department will only assess complete applications. This means that we must be in receipt of both references as well as the transcript of results, CV and personal statement before we begin to view and assess an application. To that end, we recommend applicants keep track of whether their references have been sent and be pro-active in chasing their referees if necessary.
Please also be advised that meeting the minimum entry requirements does not guarantee an offer will be made.
Fees and Funding
