Once you have submitted your application form and academic transcript, you will be contacted to schedule a 15-minute interview with a member of the academic staff. The interview provides an opportunity for you to demonstrate a clear understanding of the course expectations, commitment to study, the ability to express yourself effectively and the ability to work independently and as part of a team.
