Completed applications (consisting of an online application form, one reference, transcripts of previous qualifications and evidence of English Language score where required) will be considered on a first-come first-served basis according to the date of completion of the application. Early applications are strongly advised.

Candidates who are required to provide evidence of English Language competence at Band D level (for example IELTS Academic 6.5 overall with a minimum of 6.0 in each skill) should ensure that they can provide this by the deadline in their offer letter.

King's offers pre-sessional online programmes that equip students with the academic and language skills needed to succeed. Taught by highly qualified King’s tutors, our world-class courses are an alternative to taking an external English test. Visit the Pre-sessional English website for more information on our courses.

The initial decision will be to either confirm the offer of a place without an interview, invite you for an interview, or make the application unsuccessful. We may run a waiting list with competitive applications placed on hold if there are more applications than spaces available.

You should expect to receive this initial decision within six weeks of the date of submission of the completed application, although this may be slightly longer at peak periods near to the closing date. Applicants who are offered a place will have to provide original documentary evidence of their previous qualifications, and pay a non-refundable deposit, before access to the online virtual learning environment will be given at the start of your course.

You will be asked to submit the following documents in order for your application to be considered:

Personal statement	Yes	A personal statement is required. This can be entered directly into the online application form (maximum 4,000 characters) or uploaded as an attachment to the online application form (maximum 2 pages).

You should also confirm that you have read and can comply with the computing specification required to commence the programme, which can be viewed in the entry requirements section, and provide details of your access to: adequate clinical facilities and an appropriate selection of patients; approved video equipment, as part of the monitoring process (advice on this will be given in the first intensive face-to-face course); an appropriate dental library.
Previous Academic Study	Yes	A copy (or copies) of your official academic transcript(s), showing the subjects studied and marks obtained. If you have already completed your degree, copies of your official degree certificate will also be required.
