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.
If you have already applied to King's through our online application form you can check the status of your application by logging into myApplication

APPLICATION PROCEDURE
Your application will be assessed by two academics. Shortlisted home candidates are usually interviewed in person, and shortlisted overseas candidates are usually interviewed by telephone. All shortlisted candidates are asked to complete a short numeracy test. We aim to process all applications within eight weeks, but please bear in mind that this programme attracts a very large number of applications. Early application is recommended to maximise your chances of selection. During holiday periods, applications may take longer to process.
