How to Apply
Funding for Masters Students: How to Apply
Except where indicated, all the awards use the same application process.
The application process is in two parts:
- You need to submit a standard online application form (including references) by 15 February 2012 at the latest. You can do this here. Your referees will also need to submit your references directly to the School by this date.
- You also need to submit a SAHC/AHRC Funding Application Form, including a Case for Support and transcripts to the PG office (contact details on the form) by 5pm on 2 March 2012.
Case for Support
As part of your Funding Application, you need to submit a 500-word case for support. Guidance for this can found below.
References
You will also need two references to be submitted by the 15 February 2012. There are instructions for referees in the AHRC guidance notes which you can pass these on to your referees, and in a web version here.
You should inform your referees that you are applying for funding. References that do not provide a detailed appraisal of your academic development and suitability for your proposed programme of study, but are simply a general statement of support, may disadvantage even the strongest applicant.
