How and when can I apply for the preparatory programme?
It is not possible to apply for the preparatory programme. When a student applies to a Master’s programme at the ISHSS, the Admissions Committee evaluates her/his academic background. If they conclude that the applicant has good undergraduate qualifications in a related field, but has insufficient knowledge of key issues, it may require the applicant to complete the preparatory programme before embarking on the Master’s programme. The preparatory programme is designed especially to prepare students for the Master’s programme that follows. Therefore, it is not possible to detach the preparatory programme from the Master’s programme.
