Application process

To apply you will need to submit:

- Online application form

- Personal statement (500-600 words)

- Two-page CV

- Transcripts of grades (including secondary education)

Your personal statement together with your CV should demonstrate your readiness, capability and future plans for the programme.

- Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)

- Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is where we accept a previous qualification as meeting the learning outcomes (or covering the syllabus) for part of a course or module, so you don't need to take it as part of your degree.

If you have previously completed credits from a Masters level qualification that can be matched to credits on the programme qualification you would like to apply for, then you may be eligible for RPL or Recognition of Prior Experiential Learning (RPEL) at City.
