Supervisors
The deadline for applications for any Oxford-administered scholarships, including the WIMM Prize Studentship, has now passed. Prospective applicants are strongly advised to contact their prospective supervisor in advance of making an application to ensure the availability of research opportunities. We advise you to submit your application as soon as possible. This allows more time to complete all admissions processes and makes it easier to find a college place. You should be aware that applications received before the funding deadline of 10 January will be processed prior to any later applications being considered. The latest date you can apply for a place for October 2020 entry is Friday 24 July 2020. You can find full details on the application process in the University’s application guide.
