You can apply for admission before receiving the results of your English language test. However, a sufficient result will then be a condition of your eventual admission. Of course, if you already have your English language test results, you can upload them directly.

• Digital copies of diplomas and transcripts are initially required. Once you have been admitted, we will inform you how to submit certified copies.
• The documents must be in the original language. If they are not in English, Dutch, German or French, they must be accompanied by official translations into one of these languages.
• If you have not yet completed your current programme, state your expected graduation date and submit copies of all transcripts obtained to date plus a list of subjects still to be completed.

Please also submit your curriculum vitae (resume).

You are required to submit a writing sample (a relevant research paper or Bachelor’s Thesis). It should be a paper with you as a single author, with an introduction, materials and methods section, results section (with experiments you conducted yourself and/or data you collected, analyzed and interpreted), discussion section in which you compare the key findings to the expectations and/or relevant earlier findings, explain and evaluate their differences and/or similarities; answer your research question and/or accept/reject the hypothesis; describe the scientific and societal implications/contributions of the research; provide suggestions for future research. If it’s a group project, please explain which part of the experimental work is yours. 

For all students except students with a BSc BFW:
In this letter you are asked to explain in writing that you possess the same level of knowledge, understanding and skills as applicants who are holding a Bachelor’s degree in Bio-Pharmaceutical Sciences from a Dutch research university. 
Please indicate also in this letter at which research division of the LACDR you would like to do a Research Project.

In order to be admissible it is essential for you to have sufficient (hands-on) training in research. Therefore we recommend that you choose the research themes that fit best with your prior education. Please also refer to this research experience in this letter.
