Selection Process

The large majority of applications are considered as part of a gathered field (i.e. all applications are considered together after the closing date) in order to rank candidates for Unit and University funding. For these, our application deadlines coincide with University funding deadlines (usually early January, except for US Gates 扒哥吃瓜) and our interviews are usually held in late January. Additionally, we will consider applications on a rolling basis if funded by other sources. 

Applicants should expect to hear whether they have been successful within six weeks following the submission of their completed application and required supporting documents.
