Selection Process
Applications must be made online using King's Apply, the Admissions Portal. A non-refundable application fee of £85 applies.
In order to give equal consideration to all applicants, this programme operates a partial “gathered-field” approach to decision-making for applicants who meet our advertised academic entry requirements. This means that a decision may not be reached until after the initial March application deadline for those who have submitted a complete application by the end of February. You will be informed via King's Apply if your application is being held beyond this point. The programme will remain open after March until all places have been allocated.
