If more information is required from you, someone from the Graduate School will contact you. Students who have deferred their start for a year should contact the Graduate School for more information.

Applicants are strongly advised to contact a potential supervisor before submitting their application and research proposal.

If you already know that you wish to be considered for a specific scholarship, please make this explicit on your application form.

Students who applied for funding in 2013-14 will be informed of the outcome of their application by the end of May 2013 at the latest, and are requested to refrain from inquiring about the status of their application until June 2013.

Taught Postgraduates

Taught postgraduates i.e. taught Master's applicants who have been offered a place (conditional or unconditional) to study within the College of Arts and Social Sciences will be considered for funding if recommended to the College by their School,  in the following area for which they are eligible:

  • AHRC Scholarships

The College will not contact taught postgraduate applicants unless they are successful in obtaining funding, and therefore applicants who applied in 2013-14 who have heard nothing by the end of May 2013 may assume that they have been unsuccessful. Students are requested to refrain from inquiring about the status of their application until June 2013.
