How to Apply

We are now closed for applications for entry in Michaelmas Term 2024, but we are still considering applications from college members and for those applying for entry in Lent or Easter Term 2025. 

Postgraduate Applications​

You can apply to the University of Cambridge as a postgraduate using the central admissions scheme. There’s no need to apply separately to Corpus Christi College.

On the University’s application form, you can list up to two colleges in your order of preference. If you want to be considered for a place at Corpus, we advise you to put us as your first choice. If the University decides to offer you a place, your application is automatically passed on to us at the College.

If you have any queries about courses, please contact the University’s Postgraduate Admissions Office.

Postgraduate Open Days are normally held in early November.

Deadlines for Applications

To find out about deadlines for individual courses, please consult the Course Directory maintained by the University’s Postgraduate Admissions Office.

Almost all students start in October, but postgraduates studying for a PhD may begin in January or occasionally April. However, there are real advantages to arriving at the start of the academic year in October along with most of the student body.

For more information, please contact the Tutorial Office at Corpus by email or on 01223 763583.
