Important
Please note that the college is receiving much greater volumes of applications from India this year than in previous years, and while our team is working as quickly as possible, applicants should expect to wait up to 8 weeks from the date of application to receive Letters of Acceptance. Receipts for payment will normally be posted within a week.
Please do not call, email or post in the application portal requesting updates on applications. The India team is unable to provide these updates. All updates will be made on the application portal by the admissions team. Repeated requests only slow down the work of the entire team. Please be assured that the entire admissions office working hard to get letters to applicants as quickly as possible. We understand student concerns and study permit application deadlines.
We thank you for your patience, and hope to see you here on campus soon.
