My team,as always are here to support you with any queries that you have. I have been meeting with agents around the World to understand how we can work together over the next intake.

We still have spaces on most courses; however,applications are high,and some courses are filling up so if you have any applicants in the pipeline that are yet to apply,please do so as soon as possible.
There are a couple of updates that I wanted to share with you. We have announced the Cranfield International Arrivals Bursary. based on the feedback,that my team and I received,we wanted to reduce some of the challenges related to covid for our applicants. We believe that this is one of the best packages in the sector and is open to all full-time international students starting between July and October this year.
