Prospective students are encouraged to contact Raffles University’s education consultants for expert advice on programmes, entry requirements, and scholarship opportunities. The consultants offer clear and personalised guidance, helping individuals navigate the admission process and explore financial support options.

Applicants must submit their highest academic qualifications and English language test results to fulfil the entry requirements. Depending on the programme, additional criteria such as a CV or interview may also be required. It is essential for applicants to carefully review the specific requirements for their chosen programme to ensure all necessary documents are submitted.

Applicants have the option to attend a Supporting Lesson on Writing an Effective Statement of Research Interest (SRI) as part of the admission process. This optional lesson offers guidance on creating a well-structured SRI that aligns with their academic goals. Additionally, it provides insight for both the applicants and the university, ensuring that the university’s resources and research direction are well-suited to the applicant’s interests. 

The lesson may cover

• The structure and key components of a successful SRI.
• How to align research interests with the expertise of faculty members.
• Research design and feasibility.
• Examples of well-structured SRIs.

Once the Statement of Research Interest (SRI) is completed, applicants are required to submit it to the university. The university will then appoint a Faculty Evaluation Panel to review the SRI. This panel will carefully assess the applicant’s research interests, ensuring alignment with the university’s academic resources and research directions.

An interview will be conducted with the Faculty Evaluation Panel to provide constructive feedback on the applicant’s Statement of Research Interest (SRI). This interview offers a valuable opportunity for applicants to engage directly with faculty members, receive insights on their research interests, and discuss how they align with the university’s resources and objectives.

Accepted and Proceed to Admission with Adjustments: If the alignment and quality of the Statement of Research Interest (SRI) are moderate to strong, and the applicant demonstrates openness, the research can proceed with some adjustments.

Revise Research Topic and Resubmit SRI: If the alignment and quality of the SRI are below moderate and weak, but the applicant shows flexibility and commitment, revisions will be recommended to better fit the programme and faculty’s expertise. The applicant will need to resubmit the revised SRI for further evaluation.

Rejection and Alternative Programme: If there is no alignment and the quality of the SRI is weak, and the applicant refuses to adapt, guidance will be offered toward other programmes that may better suit their research interests. This ensures that the applicant can find a more suitable academic path.
