Who can
apply?
Candidates
are normally expected to hold a first degree at either first class or upper
second-class level. We will need to be able to confirm that candidates are
sufficiently fluent in written and oral English to pursue their proposed
studies immediately, as no pre-course English Language Teaching is available
under these awards. Candidates who have already studied for one year or more in
a developed country or who possess sufficient resources to self-fund are not
eligible for an award.
You will be
asked to certify in writing that you:
i) are a national
of a Commonwealth developing country, and not at present living or studying in
a developed country;
ii) have not
undertaken studies lasting one year or more in a developed country;
iii) are
yourself, or through your family, unable to pay to study in the United Kingdom;
iv) will
return to your home country as soon as your award comes to an end. The
commission will only consider requests to extend leave to remain in the UK
post-award for those wishing to move from masters to PhD study. Strict
conditions will apply.
