How do I apply for a postgraduate degree at the University of Birmingham?

Unlike undergraduate applications that go through UCAS, you apply for a Master’s or PhD directly through the university’s online application portal. You will need to upload your official university transcripts (usually requiring a UK 2:1 equivalent degree), two academic references, an updated CV, and a targeted personal statement explaining your research goals.
