Consultants

Consultants are available to review parts of your application. Please get in touch with the program consultant responsible for your program well in advance of submitting your application. We suggest at least one month prior to the application deadline as an appropriate time.

Once your application is assessed, you may ask for feedback from the consultant responsible for the program to which you applied. Reassess your application in light of the feedback and consider whether you should apply again or for a different project.
