How to Apply to University for a Master's Course | Postgraduate | Atousa

//
it's almost been a year since I was making applications to postgraduate courses, and since it's that time when students are starting to apply for master's, PhD's and other post graduate courses, I thought it would be a good idea to make a video talking about my tips on how to choose and how to apply for master's courses. Currently I am studying my master's at King's College London in Translational Cancer Medicine. This master's course is an MRes (which is master of research) and I absolutely love. I know the application process can be daunting, will all of the researching into courses and writing a personal statement, but I hope that the tips that I share with you in this video can help you with making the choice of whether you should study a postgraduate course, and which universities to apply for!

I can't thank you enough, I've been so scared of applying mainly because of the fear of getting rejected. but after doing some research and mainly watching your video(s) I felt confident enough to apply and after weeks of not hearing back I got accepted!! I feel so lucky that I found a KZbinr who specialises in the exact field I want to get into, thank you 🥺

thank you so much for this wonderful video! i am a first generation student and the process of applying for a masters felt very daunting, but this has really helped me understand and feel less overwhelmed by the information!!! ❤️

[@atousa5752]

you are more than welcome! I'm really glad to hear that and I wish you all the very best!!! :)

[@prajwals2352]

Hey Atousa! I'm really thankful to you for making these kind of videos and its still relevant in 2019. I have a question for you, how are the applicants ranked or selected? I mean, what aspects of a student does the admission team give priority?

[@dorkamelissacamiloreyes5910]

This helps a lot! thank you

[@atousa5752]

You are very welcome :)

Getting references is a pointless and somewhat humiliating exercise

[@andrewwells6323]

Just wondering, what time of year did you apply for a Masters? I know each uni has its own deadline, but I still feel like I'm way behind even I'm still within the deadline.

[@atousa5752]

I applied pretty late, around May time, don't worry you have plenty of time :)

[@andrewwells6323]

Atousa thank you! That makes me feel a lot better.

[@shantelplummer7959]

Hi there! I watch your videos ALL the time you are amazing and soo helpful! I have a few questions... I have now decided to apply to study an msc at imperial after being out of education for 5 years. Will this hinder my application? Ive been working in cancer research for 2+ years though also just in admin. Also any advice on msc interviews?

[@AeroXKitteN97]

Hey Atousa! Loved the Video. Was wondering when did you send in your application?:) (Time of the year)

[@atousa5752]

hello :) I can't remember specific date, but I think it was as late as May

[@andreaalfieri6493]

Hello Atousa, I am a CS student at Politecnico di Milano and I am going to get my Bachelor Degree by next summer. I am looking for information about Master Degree Programs, as I would like to get accepted into ETH Zurich, and this video got me a little confused: I always thought that a Master is what you do right after a Bachelor Degree, and then you do a PhD.. Is the college system different in UK than the rest of Europe? Because I believe what you do would be called a PhD in Switzerland. Thank you!!

[@christopherhofmann8993]

I love your videos! You've really helped me gain a lot of confidence in applying for master's courses. Thanks so much for your help!!

[@elianayocheved770]

I'm thinking of applying to King's for 2020- either that, or Nottingham- to study an MA in [Int'l] Security or an MA in Diplomacy. I graduate from my Bachelor's though in December 2019, so I have a nine month gap.

[@biologicallyyaseen]

Lovely video, thinking of applying to Queen Mary after I complete my degree, and I'll probably take a gap like you to gain experience and find my specialization, hopefully it'll remain the same 😂

[@williamholmberg6692]

Hi, where do can you find courses that apply to you bachelor degree?

Hello, Thanks for the video. I'm a Medical student in South Africa, my home country. I really want to study my Postgraduate studies at Oxford University (Masters of Medicine). I have tried to find online information but I didn't succed. The only information I could get is on Undergraduate and Electives progremmes.

[@atousa5752]

hello :) oh that's awesome, and I would love to help you but honestly I don't know much about it ): I would say try and take direct action and call them up or email them or just keep asking the school questions until they help you! good luck!

Hey atousa marks are matters for international students admissions in PG in king's College and other college in UK

[@heloiselebon5837]

Hi Atousa ! Thank you so much for your very helping videos ! I have a question though, even if it might sound a bit stupid, how do you know who to reach as a supervisor, like how can I know who the supervisors are in my department and how can I know what their speciality is, and finally how do I get their contact (email adress for instance) ? I would like to do a master's degree in a very specific field, and I really dont know where to start to find out who I could reach to be my supervisor ! Thanks again for your videos and good luck with your studies !

[@atousa5752]

Hi lovely, not a stupid question at all! I would start on the university website and look for the particular department that you would like to work/study in, and usually there will be a contacts section or a section called staff, where you can look who works there and what sort of work they do. I hope you find it! :)

[@georgiikrivoshein8323]

Thank you so much for your video! You are amazing! I just wanna ask you about deadline.. till what date is more preferable to send an application for master degree?

[@atousa5752]

You are very welcome :) and I think it depends on the university, usually on the website it will say when the deadline is, usually it is between June-August but check the website to be sure! and good luck!!

How many applications is a good amount to send out?

Hi Atousa, Iam MBBS medical IMG, due to enter GMC next year INSHAALLAH before getting to core medical training in internal medicine, but I want to ask you if I can enter the field of medical research in UK along my medical specialty training, especially when telling you about my (bad grades in my MBBS degree), and will it help if I do research experience to be able to apply to research project in UK, or Master?

[@atousa5752]

I think if you are already an MBBS you can just transfer, but to be honest with you I don't know much about this field and I don't want to confuse you! I'm hoping some of my subscribers will see this comment and answer it for you if they have the answer!!

I probably sound stupid but what is "postgraduate study", is it studying after a levels or something else?

[@atousa5752]

post-graduate means after you have graduated from university :) so under-graduate is when you go to university to do a degree for the first time, and post-graduate is if you already have a degree and you go to get another degree like a Master's degree!

[@unknown-zb1eg]

Thank you!
