The name of the EMCL programme in "Studielink" is "Research Master in Clinical Linguistics".

There is a confusing message in the application system. The instructions in Progress ask you to upload the reference letters. However, on our website we mention that your referees need to send their letters to the emailaddress: emcl@rug.nl.

This is what needs to be done: ask your referees to send their letters to emcl@rug.nl. As soon as we received them, we will notify the admissions office to tick the necessary box in Progress

You will receive the link for payment from our admissions office after you submitted all the documents in Progress.

If it takes too long, please contact the admissions office: admissionsoffice@rug.nl

Not a problem at all. You need to send us (so upload it in the progress portal) a transcript of records plus a statement of your university that you will finish your studies before the 1st of September 2025.

The motivation letter should be 1-2 pages. Not longer than 2 pages in any case.

Yes and no. Please act as follows:

Even though your referees send their academic letter of recommendation directly to emcl@rug.nl, you still need to upload a pdf document in Progress, containing either both letters or a blank pdf document, otherwise your application will remain 'incomplete'.

Please contact the admissions office via: admissionsoffice@rug.nl

The programme starts on September 1, 2024.
