I have an offer

Congratulations on your offer of postgraduate study.

To secure your offer, we recommend confirming your acceptance as soon as possible. Offers are typically valid for one week (7 calendar days), so ensure you respond before the specified deadline. Please note that offers will lapse if not accepted by the specified deadline.

1. Log in to the Application HUB.  
2. Navigate to the ‘Accept/Decline Offer’ tab. 
3. Confirm your acceptance before the deadline provided in your notification email. 

Once your status updates to ‘Accepted’, your acceptance is successfully recorded. 

Updating Your Contact Details  

When accepting your offer, you will have an opportunity to update the following:  

• Notification Email Address: Ensure this is valid and accurate because it will be our primary communication method for further updates about your application and registration. 
• Mailing Address: Your offer package will be sent to this address. Double-check its accuracy.  

Before accepting your offer, please read the Terms of PGR Admission thoroughly to understand the conditions of your admission. 

Review your offer carefully to check whether it is unconditional or conditional. For conditional offers, ensure you meet all stated conditions and submit the required documents via the Application HUB within the specified time frame.

The PGR Admissions Team will review your documents within three working days and update your status in the Application HUB. If the documents do not meet the requirements, they may be returned for modification. Once all conditions are satisfied, your offer will be updated to an unconditional offer, officially confirming your place.  

Fulfilling Your Offer Conditions

1. Provide evidence of your qualifications
   Upload clear and legible scanned copies of your final transcripts and certificates via the Application HUB.
2. Provide evidence of your English language proficiency 
   To meet the English language requirements outlined in your offer, upload the necessary evidence via the Application HUB by the specified deadline. 
   If you require additional support to improve your English skills, you may enrol in the Pre-sessional Programme offered by the Centre for English Language Education. Please note that this course is available only during the summer.
3. Provide additional documents (if applicable)
   If you are a full-time employee applying for a part-time PGR programme, you will need to provide a supporting letter from your employer.
   If you are a full-time employee applying for a full-time programme and your employer supports your leave of absence for study, you need to provide a supporting letter from your employer.

We currently offer two intakes: autumn and spring. If your circumstances prevent you from joining the autumn intake, you may request a deferral to the spring intake. Deferrals to the next academic year are not permitted.

To request a deferral, please contact the PGR Admissions Team at PGR@nottingham.edu.cn. Ensure your email includes your full name, application ID, and reasons for the deferral. Deferral requests are only permitted if your offer has been updated to unconditional and must be submitted no later than the end of July. 

If you have been awarded a scholarship, it will be withdrawn upon approval of your deferral request. However, you may reapply for the scholarship for the deferred entry, subject to availability.

If you need a student visa to study in China, you will receive a visa supporting document (i.e. the JW202 form) by email within two to three weeks of accepting an unconditional offer.
