To apply for most of our postgraduate programmes at King's you will need to complete our postgraduate online application form. A minority of programmes have a different application procedure which will be outlined below. Applying online makes applying easier and quicker for you, and means we can receive your application faster and more securely.
King's does not normally accept paper copies of the postgraduate application form as applications must be made online. However, if you are unable to access the online postgraduate application form, please contact the relevant admissions/School Office at King's for advice.

APPLICATION PROCEDURE

You must provide official transcripts of all prior undergraduate (and higher) level study as part of your application, as well as two detailed academic references.  We aim to process all applications within four to six weeks, although this may take longer in February and March, and over holiday periods. Whenever possible, an interview with one or more members of the academic staff is an important part of the admission process. Normally, in your own interest, you are advised to visit the Centre for Hellenic Studies at King's, and interviews can be conducted at any time in the year provided that your application papers have been received and sufficient time allowed for an interview to be arranged. Alternatively, it is sometimes possible for interviews to be arranged in Athens, Thessaloniki or Nicosia. Phone or Skype interviews are an alternative method for overseas students.



PERSONAL STATEMENT & SUPPORTING INFORMATION

In your personal statement, please provide some information on your current knowledge of/proficiency in both ancient and/or modern languages.



FUNDING
The Centre for Hellenic Studies, King’s College London, announces up to 4 scholarships for its MA (Master’s) programmes in Modern Greek Studies and in Late Antique and Byzantine Studies, beginning in September 2013. Each scholarship has the value of £2,500 and is offered for either one year of full-time study or two years part-time.

Applicants must already have accepted the offer of a place on one of these programmes of study by the closing date. When an offer is conditional on qualifications not yet obtained by the closing date, any offer of a scholarship automatically lapses if the condition for entry has not been met by, at the latest, 1 September.

There is no separate application form, but those who wish to be considered must confirm this by an email message to the Director before the closing date. After the closing date, all eligible applications on the College’s online Admissions Portal will be assessed by the academic staff of the Centre and decisions made known to applicants as soon as possible thereafter.

The closing date is Monday 10 June 2013.
