In such cases you may be made a conditional pending completion of your degree at the required grade.  This documentation must be submitted to the ILGSPD Consortium via the University of Glasgow online application before a final unconditional offer can be made.  Documentation must be provided as soon as possible and no later than the given deadline in July of the year of entry.

Yes, an applicant who wishes to be considered for an ILGSPD scholarship must submit their English Language Test by the stated deadline in order to be considered for entry on to the ILGSPD programme.  If applying as a self-funding student, then in such cases you may be made a conditional offer pending receipt of the language test result at the required grade.  This documentation must be submitted to the ILGSPD Consortium via the University of Glasgow online application before a final unconditional offer can be made. All documentation must be provided by the stated deadline.

Please note that the 4-week reply period is a generic response from the University of Glasgow. We appreciate this can cause concern but it does not apply to our ILGSPD programme. Applicants may wait until the scholarship awards are announced before replying to the Admissions Office.

If your offer is conditional you will be able to access your conditions and submit any required documents using Admissions Self-Service.

Please upload the required documentary evidence to your online application. Once we have confirmed your documentary evidence as meeting the conditions we will issue you with an unconditional offer.

All eligible applicants (those who submitted their application by the scholarship deadline and who have received either a conditional or unconditional offer of a place on the degree programme) are considered for scholarship.  Please note that the 4-week reply period indicated on your offer is a generic response from the University of Glasgow.  We appreciate this can cause concern but it does not apply to our ILGSPD programme.  Applicants may wait until the scholarship awards are announced before replying to the Admissions Office or making English Language test arrangements.

8. What happens once I have accepted my offer of a place on the ILGSPD programme?
After you have accepted an unconditional offer, you will be eligible to enrol. Details regarding your access to enrolment will be available starting in early August. You will receive another email to tell you how to register online using the University’s MyCampus website. That email will provide you with your personal login details and the website URL. Please ensure that your email address is kept up to date as all correspondence is sent via email.

If you are an international student you will receive a Confirmation of Acceptance of Studies (CAS) which is required for visa application purposes. A CAS is only issued once you have accepted an unconditional offer and you have uploaded a copy of the passport you are going to travel with. If you hold more than one offer, please think carefully before you accept your offer as CAS cannot be changed easily. Rules about how your personal information is recorded on CAS are very strict so please inform us quickly if any of your details have changed. Let us know if you have changed your name, your passport or if you notice any errors in the correspondence issued to you. Your personal and course details must match your documents exactly.

Students will need to identify their own accommodation while participating in this programme. We will seek to support students with as much information as possible for a smooth transition for each mobility. Accommodation and living costs are separate from the tuition fee.

Yes, as part of this degree you will be able to study one language course during semester one.  We offer a wide range of language, including Spanish, German, French, Arabic and Chinese.

No, individuals who have already benefited from an EMJMD scholarship are not eligible for a second scholarship in order to follow the same or another EMJMD.

The maximum number of Masters Courses for which students can apply is three. This is meant to encourage students to focus their choice. To this purpose students are required to specify in their application whether they have applied to other courses. The Commission will verify if students have been selected on more than one course and notify the relevant Consortia of such cases.

 The Consortium will pay the health insurance costs for all students. Insurers such as IPS-Lippman and AIG are recommended to obtain the minimum health and accident insurance coverage.

Additionally, ILGSPD students will be covered by the University of Glasgow’s insurance scheme which will be valid in other partner countries for the duration of the 2-year programme. This gives emergency medical cover only but covers postgraduate students, accompanying spouses/partners and children for a maximum period of 12 months on any one trip. There is no excess. The insurance coverage is very comprehensive: death or severe permanent disablement (£150,000); medical & emergency repatriation expenses (unlimited coverage); personal belongings (£10,000); personal liability: limit of indemnity – any one event (£5 million); emergency replacement of passport, visa, travel documents etc (£1,500) etc.

ILGSPD  students are advised to obtain the https://www.gov.uk/global-health-insurance-card https://ec.europa.eu/social/main.jsp?catId=563&langId=en#nationalinfo  prior to arrival in Glasgow for the start of the programme. 

Non-EU students will have to supply a copy of their original visa showing that they are entitled to be in the UK for the period in question and in this way will have full EU medical care cover. EU national students can apply through their own EHIC equivalent so they are entitled to health care in the UK.  Again overseas nationals who might be studying at the partner universities can apply through the partner country which their visa is for. Basically students will be entitled to medical treatment that becomes necessary, at reduced cost or sometimes free, when temporarily visiting a European Union country. Only treatment provided under the state scheme is covered.

Programme duration is 2 years (24 months, and 4 semesters). Please see here.

The Orientation Week for the ILGSPD programme starts in Glasgow and is normally held in the first week in September.

Yes, we have a dedicated Facebook group and Instagram page. We encourage you to follow the pages, so you are kept up to date with new information.

You can also contact the existing cohort via twitter and Linkedln.
