Postgraduates

The postgraduate course application procedure in the UK differs from the undergraduate procedure in that most Universities have their own postgraduate course application process, as opposed to the centralised UCAS process for undergraduate applications.

Postgraduate courses generally fall into two categories; taught and research based courses. As with undergraduate courses, most taught postgraduates courses in the UK start in late September/early October. Closing dates for taught postgraduate applications tend not to be as strictly defined as undergraduate deadlines. Is it best to submit your application as soon as you possibly can, up to one year in advance of your chosen courses start date.

You must have evidence to show that you have secured funding in place to pay for your studies and an unconditional offer of a place on your course before you are able to apply for your student visa, so you need to allow plenty of time for this.

Postgraduate research based courses tend to allow entry throughout the calendar year. It is still advisable to begin your application as soon as possible, as the process is still lengthy. An offer of a place on your chosen course must be obtained along with proof of funding before you can apply for a student visa.

Scholarships tend to be available for international students, but you must receive an offer of a place on your course in order to be eligible for one. The sooner you receive your offer the better in terms of applying for a scholarship, many scholarships will already be allocated by the early months of the year.

The main intake in the UK is September, with most courses starting in September/October. For the September intake, most UK Universities will request that you make your application to study through UCAS, the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service, whom are largely responsible for managing higher education course applications in the UK.

Applications begin from mid-September of the year preceding the start date, so if you want to begin your studies in September 2018 you can start your application from September 2017 onward. Application deadlines for some courses arrive as early as October, whilst the remaining courses generally have a deadline of mid January. Exact deadlines will vary based on course and institute, so make sure to double check. If you missed out on the course of your choice by the mid January deadline, try finding a course through clearing, which is available between July and September.

You will have received confirmation of an offer by the end of March, at which time you must sort out a study visa if you require one. If you do receive all your offers by the end of March, you must then reply to all of these offers by early May.

Many UK Universities also entry to courses in January. Deadlines for such applications vary so it is best to check directly at your chosen institute, but be prepared to submit your application as early as possible.

Important visa information

UK visa rules stipulate that all non-UK or European Union citizens must have a valid student visa to undertake an exchange period. Depending on your nationality you may be able to obtain a visa upon arrival at a UK airport, however many nationalities require applying for a visa in advance. Regardless of how you obtain a visa you will need a visa support letter from your host university.

Students going to the UK for programs of more than six months must apply for a Tier 4 (general) student visa. You will be issued a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies statement by your host university to apply for your visa. Australian and New Zealand citizens applying for the Tier 4 must pay a £200 Immigration Health Surcharge as part of their visa application.

Students going to the UK for programs of less than six months can apply for a Tier 4 (general) student visa or a short-term study visa. The short-term study visa is the simpler and cheaper option for entering the UK however the visa cannot be extended and no work can be undertaken (paid or unpaid) while in the UK.

The University of Oxford is a research university located in Oxford in England. The university is the oldest in the English speaking world, with evidence of instruction being done then as early as 1096. Like many of the older English universities, there is not one “campus” per se, but rather colleges, departments, living accommodations, academic buildings, and other important buildings are located throughout the city of Oxford. There are over 22,000 students at Oxford, including 11,832 undergraduates and 9,857 postgraduates. The University has over 16,500 people employed, and 94% of Oxford students are employed or go on to graduate studies after they leave Oxford. Over 80 Nobel Prize recipients have been associated with Oxford at one time in their lifetimes.
