Applying for postgraduate courses

Taught postgraduate courses

For most taught master's degrees, postgraduate diplomas and certificates and professional courses you will need to apply through UKPASS. This is an online service for those wanting to apply for postgraduate study in the UK.

For a few courses you will need to apply directly to Oxford Brookes. Please check the individual course entries for specific application information.

How do I apply through UKPASS?

Apply online by clicking on the link to the UKPASS application form, which can be found on each course entry on this website. Applications received through UKPASS will be forwarded directly to the school.

When should I apply?

While most postgraduate courses are open to applications all through the year, some courses have application deadlines, so please check the details of the course you are interested in. We recommend that applications are submitted as early as possible as courses tend to fill up quickly. Please contact the relevant course administrator for further information.

Research degrees

To ensure that the necessary facilities and supervisors are available for your study please phone or email the contact for the subject area you are interested in to discuss the research proposal informally before submitting an application.
