Admission to Part II and Part III

Admission to Part II in 2024/25

Part II Chemistry has unrestricted admission, but you still need to chose Chemistry within the NST Subjects Allocations Process.  You will hear from your DoS about how you go about indicating your choice.  See also http://www.cam.ac.uk/about/natscitripos/part_ii/index.html

 

Admission to Part III in 2024/25

If you wish to take Part III in 2024/25 you need to make an application to do so. As far as the Department is concerned, submitting a choice of projects using the procedures and timetable described below (follow the link Part III Projects) constitutes a valid application.  The deadline for this is 24th May 2024.  In addition, you need to satisfy the academic requirements, which are as follows:

The minimum standard required for entry to Part III in 2024/25 will be a II.1 in Part II Chemistry

Students are reminded that Part III Chemistry is a masters-level course and represents a significantly higher level of challenge than does Part II and it is for this reason we look for evidence that students can perform consistently at the 2.1 level.

Anyone unsure about the academic expectations of Part III should discuss the matter with their Director of Studies.

Your college may have its own procedures and requirements with which you will need to comply.

If you have submitted your project choices in time, and then go on to achieve the required academic standard in June 2024, you are automatically admitted to Part III in 2024/25  – no further action on your part is needed.

If you do not achieve the required academic standard but still wish to proceed to Part III you can make an appeal using the procedure set out in this document.  The proforma for submitting an application can be downloaded from here.  It is important that make your appeal immediately that you know your Part II result.
