HOW TO APPLY TO A MASTERS COURSE AT CAMBRIDGE UNI *the ultimate guide*

including a few of my tips on getting in, things you might need for your application, and things that helped me :-) filmed this video a few weeks ago but only just got round to editing! I applied to Cambridge after going to a 'normal' uni (university of nottingham) and I didn't know what to expect. this video also contains a lot of useful information for you if you're applying for a phd at cambridge. Hopefully this video will help to demystify the application process for you all :-) if you have any questions about applying please pop them down in the comments!

Hi! I'm Savannah, 22 years old from Wolverhampton. I have just got my MPhil in Philosophy of Science from Magdalene College, Cambridge, and before that I did a BSc in Mathematics at the University of Nottingham. For 2022-2023 I'm working as the Access, Education and Participation at Cambridge Students Union, and there's much more to come!

I am currently year 1 in UoN(China) doing AEE course. Your video is encouraging and I hope to enter the cambridge through my effort one day!

That’s an excellent summary of the PG application process. I had a different experience though. my MPhil is one of the few that requires no personal statements, and most of my interview time was focused on my research proposal. you are right about funding. It is so hard to secure one for masters! I have a friend who is self funding her phd at cambridge though. Hopefully she will earn a scholarship soon. It’s no light undertaking!

Interesting story- I’m starting my philosophy degree at Nottingham soon, so maybe I should consider an MPhil in philosophy for the future. Thanks!

what do you mean with "fast application? basically, which month?

Hi instead of applying to Cambridge masters whilst at final year of bachelors, can I go into workplace for a year or two to save up some money plus gain more professional experience, and then only apply to masters? Will it be more advantageous if I do it? Or is it better to just apply directly right after doing bachelors?

Can I apply for M.phil in archaeology without having MA degree and with only BA degree?
