Cranfield Uni Review

Cranfield was the first University amongst the world to start its MSc programme in Automotive Engineering; there are only a few universities worldwide that have a legacy in their flagship courses. Cranfield is one of the same stories for the aerospace courses. The admission process was simpler: just contact the university, contact a study abroad firm, and contact the University of Asia's admissions head. Contact a study abroad firm. They will guide you through the admission process with a genuine process and step-by-step clarity. Keep your IELTS score before the admission process begins, present IELST along with transcripts, and prepare for the interview for admission, that's it. The university gives you a CAS letter with a VISA, then applied via VRS New Delhi. Wait for the VISA and Offer of Admission, book flights, and FLY! The main reasons that drove me for cranfield is strong ties with OEMs and F1 Motorsports teams. Competitive Environment. Highly competent people are selected for the PG-only courses at the university....Read More

Cranfield University is the only college I applied to, and I was admitted, so I did not apply to other universities. The status I received was admitted, after an online application review and an interview with a project guide. No, I did not receive a rejection. Cranfield University has a good research facility, and you have the freedom to do your course on your own with no one watching and monitoring your every move, which makes it hard to actually do the work. But in this case, the work done is your work, and you can continue with it how you please. The admission procedure was smooth; they required an English test to be done. I applied for the January intake, and the factors that affected my application was I had finished my graduation from my B.Tech. course only in November the previous year. The admission process took around August 2024, and my admission was finalized in Dec 2024. I received the offer letter in August for which I applied and paid a deposit to hold my seat. Applied for a visa after that and got it done by Dec 2024....Read More

I applied to the following universities: Manchester(almost got done, but did not go ahead) Glasgow(did not like the program), Cranfield (accepted and admitted) - wanted to be part of a university that only has PG programmes Edinburgh (got rejected) - really a very competitive program Cradiff (declined the offer) - a good university, but had UG as well Warwick (did not want to give the Warwick test) Factors why I chose Cranfield A PG and above only crowd Need sa ecluded campus to focus on studies Wanted to learn how to use expertise from different courses Admission Process Application Interview (This depended on different applications) Eligibility Criteria GMAT (650+) IELTS (7 for MBA) Overall Process An extremely smooth process with proper support from the Cranfield Team I got in for the September Intake Wanted to get done with my MBA in a year, hence applied for the September Intake. Was getting done with 4.9 years of my work when i wanted to get into the MBA program, so just everything added up, plus the university only has a September intake, so there was no other time applicable The admission process took roughly 2-3 months...Read More

I’ve applied to and gotten rejections from ISAE Supaero and PoliMi. I’ve been waitlisted by KTH Royal Sweden and got admission to Cranfield. None of the universities mentioned the reason for rejection, but I think it might be because of my not very great CGPA. Even if I had many other things to make up for it, that might have been a limiting factor. I chose this university because Cranfield is popularly known for its work and history in the aeronautical, automotive, and motorsport industries. It has extremely strong ties with industrial partnerships and was one of the only universities, along with Imperial, offering an exclusive specialised MSc in CFD instead of a generic MSc in Aerospace. I was also really impressed and drawn to the professors and the work they’ve done here. The admission process is pretty straightforward; apply through the university site. Initially, send out your application (transcripts, IELTS, cover letter, etc). IELTS is mandatory (minimum 6.5 overall and a 5.5 in all skill components). The overall admission process is simple and easy to do, but I’d suggest starting your applications earlier to account for visa and other delays that may occur. I applied to the September intake. Factors I considered were the University ranking, professors, their research interests, and experience. The admission process didn’t take very long. I applied at the end of March, had my admission in April, did my visa in August, and flew here to register and start my course in September. Always make it a point to start with the applications early! :)...Read More

Applied for 2 Universities - Cranfield University and Swansea University. Both accepted my application, and I was shortlisted for both. Received admission from both universities but chose Cranfield for a vast number of reasons. No colleges that I applied to have sent me a rejection A lot could depend on the requirements of the university and of the student as well. Cranfield is a complete postgraduate university, meaning fresh minds every year and acceptance of new talent are regular. Apart from this, the university also offers a research facility and is located in a calm and green environment. The admission process: Application Confirmation of admission with Deposit (upon acceptance from university) Confirmation of CAS Letter IHS and Visa Application Uploading documents in the Shield portal (useful for submitting all docs, visa status and proof of funds) Arrival in the country Received by the university (transport provided upon request through portal) Intake applied for and factors influenced: September 2023; most particularly, my planning of the course and personal reasons influenced my decision The process took me about 6 months (from April to September). Timeline as follows: Application Confirmation of admission Deposit payment CAS Approval and Confirmation Shield portal document approval and final confirmation...Read More
