2. I鈥檓 applying for M.Sc/Ph.D. When do I need to find a supervisor?
It is advisable to start looking for a supervisor early, months before you submit your application. However, you can still submit your application before you have found a supervisor. Your application can be reviewed, but your admission will only be finalized once you have secured a supervisor, and the necessary 鈥淐onfirmation of Supervision鈥� form and听"Research project proposal" form are submitted.
3. I have trouble finding a supervisor. Can you help me contact them?
Unfortunately, no. It is up to each applicant to find a suitable supervisor. The Graduate Program does not match students to supervisors. Supervisors and their contact information can be found on our website (/expmed/people). Sometimes we have a list of a few supervisors who are actively looking for students. Please send us an email to see if we have such a list for a given term.
4. My IELTS scores/other official documents were not received by 苹果淫院. What do I do?
Please allow 10 businesses for 苹果淫院 to receive the score and to enter it in the Graduate Admission System (Slate). If it has been more than 10 days, please communicate with the agency offering the test and ask them to send the test score to 苹果淫院 again. In the meantime, please provide the Graduate Program with proof that the score was submitted to 苹果淫院 prior to the deadline.
5. My application is complete but can I submit this one document (IELTS score, reference letter, other documents) after the deadline?

8. My referees have not received the email to upload their letters. Can you do anything?
Please ask your referees to look in their junk folder as sometimes 苹果淫院 automatic emails get sorted there. If this does not help, delete and re-add a referee in the Graduate Admission System (Slate) and enter their email address again. If you or your referee are experiencing technical difficulties, please communicate with the IT Service Desk (/gradapplicants/apply/contactus).
9. My referee is on vacation and does not respond to my emails. Can the reference letter be submitted later?
No. All the documents must be submitted before the application deadline. Please contact another potential referee.
