MA

| Entry requirements | We will consider applicants with a 2:2 Honours degree or above in their first degree in English Literature, American Studies, Creative Writing, Film Studies, Television and Media, Drama, History, Classics and Ancient History, Cultural Studies and Postcolonial Literatures. While we normally only consider applicants who meet this criteria, if you are coming from a different academic background which is equivalent to degree level, or have relevant work experience, we would welcome your application. Applicants coming from a non-related background will be asked to provide a sample of written work (2,000 words) to enable their suitability for the programme to be assessed. This is not mandatory for your initial application, but you are welcome to include a writing sample if you wish. Please also include in your personal statement why you want to study the MA and why you believe you’re a good fit for the course.
