After You Submit Your Application
We'll send you an email confirmation with your unique reference number and will process your application as quickly as possible. You should expect a decision within six weeks of applying unless there is a closing date for the course you have applied for, in which case we will normally wait until this date has passed before considering all applications together. In some cases we may request more information, or invite you to an interview.

PG FAQs
If you would like to visit Leeds Beckett to learn more about postgraduate opportunities, then please register for our Open Day.
We do have quieter blocks for Postgraduate students - please request this on your application form and we will do our best to accommodate your preferences.
For the majority of postgraduate courses we would require you to have an undergraduate degree, however the entry requirements vary from course to course. All entry requirements for our postgraduate courses can be found on our online prospectus.
For the majority of Postgraduate courses we do not have a set deadlines as there can be different start times throughout the year. Instead, we will continue to accept applications until the course is full. Therefore we would always recommend applying as early as possible.
Please be aware that some professional qualifications and postgraduate courses in the areas of Health and Education have an application deadline. If you have any questions about application deadlines, please get in contact with a member of the course enquiries team by emailing the Admissions team on admissionsenquiries@leedsbeckett.ac.uk or by telephoning 0113 812 3113.
