Most applications for postgraduate study are made through the University's Postgraduate Admissions Office. You will have the opportunity to name Fitzwilliam as your College of choice.
If you are applying through a Department or Faculty, such as the Judge Business School or Faculty of Education, application procedures may be different. Whatever your route of application, please keep the College Postgraduate Office informed of your progress.
