Postgraduate taught courses with a date of equal consideration

Our most popular courses receive many more applications than we have places available. In order to ensure we recruit those students who are best equipped to succeed, some of these courses operate a 'date of equal consideration'.

Off

Applications received before this date will be guaranteed equal consideration with other applicants, in line with our published entry requirements. You can still apply for the course after the date of equal consideration but we may apply more selective criteria when assessing applications and making offers.

You should apply in the usual way using our Postgraduate Online Application Form.
