Application and Enrolment After Application

I have sent the application, what happens next?

After the deadline has passed, the IAS admission board will meet and rank all applicants that fulfil the requirements. The available spaces are then filled according to this ranking and all selected applicants will receive a letter of acceptance. Those applicants have to accept the offer usually within 14 days. This is done by sending in a matriculation form together with all required documents as certified/attested copies. All applicants that fulfil the requirements but were not selected for one of the available spaces will be informed and put on a waiting list. They may still receive an offer if one of the previously selected applicants does not answer to the letter of acceptance within the deadline or declines the offer. If the IAS admission board decided that you do not fulfil the requirements, you will receive a letter explaining the reason.
