ADMISSIONS
In order to be considered for admission to Autumn or Spring Semesters, candidates should have a Grade Point Average of around 3.50 points on a 4.00 point scale. For the Summer Programme candidates should have a GPA of at least 3.0. In considering each applicant, the Admissions Committee looks first at the transcript(s) but attaches the greatest importance to faculty recommendations, whereby the GPA requirement may on occasion be reconsidered. A high proportion of CMRS students proceed to graduate studies
after completion of their Bachelor’s degree. The training
provided by CMRS is designed in part as a useful preparation for
such research. CMRS staff and tutors are happy to advise on graduate
studies and to write references. |
CMRS works on the semester system with two fourteen-week sessions from September to April. A summer session is also offered each year in July. The academic programme is planned primarily for undergraduates in their junior and senior years and first-year graduate students. Applicants may apply for one or two semesters. While enrolled here, single semester students may apply for a second term. For semesters, CMRS follows a rolling admissions policy, accepting suitably qualified candidates as they apply until all available places are filled. The deadline for applications for the Summer Programme 2008 is 15 April 2007.
