To become a graduate student at King's, you have to be admitted both by the Faculty of your choice and by King's College. Graduate admissions are handled centrally by the Cambridge University Postgraduate Admissions Office and from there your application is sent to the relevant Faculty. If it is accepted, your application is then sent to your chosen colleges in order of preference.
Graduate courses are applied for via the University's central Postgraduate Admissions Applicant Portal. For details of all the courses and qualifications available, please see the Postgraduate Admissions website, which is linked to below. You'll also find more information about the faculties, departments, and institutions in which you can study, as well as the academics working in each subject area. On your application form you can state two colleges as your first and second preferences - and we will, of course, be pleased if you choose to apply to King's!
