Look through the course content page and the requirements they want. I think a minimum of 2:1 so it's very possible. However they are interested in your OVERALL interest of the course (NOT Imperial). A a strong indication of why you want to study the course should be enough! :smile: Best of luck.

PS - Apply ASAP. Don't leave it till the last round.

Hey man, congrats on the offer! Im a first-year computing student and planning to apply for this after my degree. I saw the entry requirements for this course and its minimum first class? Does that mean you got a first class or did you get like an upper 2:1 and the uni was being lenient and gave you an offer?

Can you give me some tips for a strong application, as in did you do a lot of internships or something which made your application stand out? Was it ur personal statement and references that stood out?

Many thanks
I am also applying for this program. Any chat group?

Thank you for the reply. I'm in the process of applying for the next round and thinking of doing part time, in terms of the schedule was it flexible to hold a job while studying? I'd appreciate any advice. Thanks a ton!
Is it possible? Yes, it is. I was working full-time when I did it.

So generally you'll take 2 modules each semester. You'll have a 2-hour lecture for each module once a week. Lectures are generally going to be from 9am-11am with an optional 1-hour lab OR 3pm-5pm with an optional 1-hour lab. Some modules could schedule stand-alone labs on a different day to the lecture.

Some lectures were streamed live using Teams and recorded (50%-70%) - and could be watched from the comfort of your couch. We also had a few profs. who did not want to be recorded.

Advice

1.

You could take 2 modules that happen on the same day i.e. one in the morning and the other in the afternoon. Then agree time-off with your work on that day OR use 8 of your work vacation days.

2.

Select modules that will be recorded

3.

Make friends - someone can take notes/ or record for you.

4.

Book a room for the day in the library and work remotely. Start work early e.g.7:30am and finish at 3pm so you can attend in person. i.e. just do afternoon modules.
