Admission |
Can I apply even if I have not received my degree yet? Yes. However, applicants must hold, or anticipate receiving before enrolment (October of any given year), a university degree that would formally qualify them to enter a PhD or equivalent programme in the country where the degree was obtained. Is there an age limit? EMBL does not have a strict age limit. However, we would like to point out that the average age of our 1st year students is 25 years. What is the working language of EMBL? Can I apply if I am a non-member state applicant? I have my own funding. Does this guarantee a place in the programme? Does it affect stipend levels if I am a non-member state student? Do I have to provide GRE, IELTS or TOEFL scores? How many reference letters are required for my application? Where can I find more information about research at EMBL? |
The Application Process |
|
Is there an application fee, and how much is it? What is the application process? Is it possible to modify the application? Can I upload my CV and recommendation letters? I have problems uploading my documents. What should I do? I would like to replace one of my referees. How can I do that? My referee has not received a request to submit the reference letter for me. What should I do? Will I be informed once the referees have completed their references? Do I need to have my certificates translated into English and authenticated? If I am unsuccessful in one selection, am I allowed to apply again in the next one? Why does EMBL not offer phone interviews?' |
