Tips from successful applicants
- Write to a prospective supervisor before the round opens; schools rarely fund an applicant nobody has spoken to.
- The President's Graduate Scholarship is nominated, not applied for — the ordinary application is the route in.
- Terms vary by school, so read the page for your school as well as the central one.
