How to Apply
For general information about applying for postgraduate study at Edinburgh, please see the University postgraduate prospectus, which includes links to current information about fees for home, EU and overseas students.
The Application Process
All applications for postgraduate study are handled centrally by the College of Humanities and Social Science, before being passed on to the relevant member of academic staff.
Candidates need to apply online, using the link below,
and applications can only be processed when they include:
- two academic references; you can supply the University
with contact details for your referees.
- a sample of written work: preferably an academic
essay of about 2000 words on a relevant topic.
- a university transcript
We aim to give decisions about places within one month
of receipt of complete applications.
Criteria for acceptance
We welcome applications from anyone with a degree in a relevant discipline, with an interest in interdisciplinary study.
We normally expect students to have received a 2.1 or equivalent in their first degree, but will consider each candidate on their merits as shown by their references and written work, and will always take special circumstances into consideration.
Deadlines
We advise applicants to submit applications as early
in the academic year as possible, especially if they
are seeking funding
(click here
for a useful PDF leaflet about funding possibilities).
However, in common with most postgraduate courses at
Edinburgh, we will consider applications up to the beginning
of September of the relevant academic year.
