How to apply
The application process is straightforward. Read the instructions carefully and complete the form. Occasionally, we have to ask applicants to re-submit; this is usually because they have not included sufficient depth and detail to show their understanding of the course and their commitment to it. We want you to succeed and will support you in any way we can.
