In order to apply, you must have completed an application to study. You will then need to complete our simple online funding application form.

Decisions will be made on merit and your interest in Shakespeare, based on your funding application form and on your application to study MA Shakespeare.

Applications will be reviewed by a panel of academics from the Shakespeare Institute. In the event of candidates of equal merit being eligible, preference may be given to a student returning to education after a significant break as this reflects Diane's experience of studying at the Shakespeare Institute.
