Who can I ask to be a referee and what should the references include?
References are usually provided by a present or former employer or a member of academic staff at your previous university. We also accept personal references from a friend or colleague, especially if they have experience in a relevant field. We can accept two work references. The references are similar to a reference provided for a potential employer in that they are required to give the admissions panel an idea of your skills and experience and your suitability to undertake the proposed course of study.
