a personalised approach
Our students come from a variety of different backgrounds, which is why we treat each applicant as an individual. Our online application form guides you through a series of steps designed to help us get to know you, and determine whether you would be a good fit for your chosen programme.
Our team of Enrolment Advisors is on hand to help you at any stage of the application process, whether you need advice on choosing a programme that fits your interests and career goals, or you need help answering a question on the form.
- Each of our online programmes has specific entry requirements which you will find on the relevant programme page on this website. In your application you need to demonstrate that you meet these criteria.
- Please choose your preferred start date. We recommend you submit your application at least one month prior to your preferred start date so that we have enough time to process your application.
