Please note, if you are looking to apply to one of the below courses, all information on entry requirements and how to apply can be found directly on the partner institutions webpage.

Genomic Medicine MSc/PG Dip/PG Cert - please visit St George's webpage.
Nursing (for qualified students in Singapore) BSc - please visit Ngee Ann Academy's webpage.

If you are looking to apply for a PGCE/QTS course (teacher training for secondary education), you will need to apply via Department for Education (DfE) Apply. Usually, we will email you with your login details for King’s Apply within a few days of receiving your PGCE application from DfE Apply. King’s Apply does not replace DfE Apply, but provides lots of useful features for King's applicants to use, and will be your main method of communication with our Admissions Office.

2. Review entry requirements

After you have chosen a course by using our course finder, read the entry requirements to find out if you have the required qualifications to be considered (including English language and international requirements if relevant).

The individual webpage for your course also contains details of specific application procedures or required documents for your course. Equivalent international entry requirements can be found in the country dropdown list on the same page.

3. Check tuition fees and available funding

Consider the availability of finances to cover both the tuition fees and living costs. Details are shown on the individual webpage for your course, which you can find on our course finder.
Additional funding opportunities at King’s and advice on other sources of funding can also be found on our postgraduate funding pages. Make sure you check for any early funding deadlines!

Please ensure that you send in all relevant documentation with your online application.

If you are unsure as to your fee status please see our policy pages.

4. Submit your application

To apply, you'll firstly need to register on our online application portal, King's Apply where you can submit your application online. This system is designed to support you through the application process. It will also be the main method by which you will communicate with the Admissions Office (via message) once you have applied.

You will receive emails from noreplyap@kcl.ac.uk when you create your account or submit an application. We strongly encourage you to save this as a contact so any emails do not go in to your junk/spam folders.

You will typically need to include:

transcripts of your previous qualifications (with official English translations if not originally in English)
one reference (this will usually be academic; you may be required to obtain a second reference at the request of the department)
any English language qualifications that you have (if your first language is not English)
a personal statement

Some courses require specific or additional information or reference to be submitted with the application e.g. writing sample/CV. Please check the ‘Entry Requirements’ information on the individual webpage for your course, which you can find by using our course finder.

We are usually unable to consider applications until we have received all necessary documents. Your referee(s) will be emailed after you submit, so we recommend you letting them know to expect an email from King’s.

We will be in touch when assessing your application if we are missing documentation, which will delay making a decision on your application.

Is there an application fee?

Most of our postgraduate taught courses will require a non-refundable application fee before you can submit your application to be considered. This step is built into the online application process on King’s Apply. Please note that payment of an application fee is not a guarantee that you will receive an offer for your chosen course as many of our courses are competitive.

Note: If you receive an offer, most of our postgraduate taught courses will also require a deposit payment to secure your offer. This is in addition to the application fee; however, the deposit is used as a partial payment of the tuition fees upon enrolling. Your offer letter will include details of any deposit you must pay, deadlines, and payment methods. You should not make a deposit payment unless instructed to as part of an offer.

When can I start my course? When is the application deadline?

Most courses will start in September, which is the beginning of our academic year.

We usually open new applications from mid-October each year for the following September. Find your course through our course finder you will be able to find the application deadline and application closing date guidance under ‘Entry requirements’. Remember that separate (sometimes earlier) deadlines may apply for funding and scholarships.
