Do I really need two references…?

Yes you need to nominate 2 referees when completing your application. You will be asked to nominate an additional referee if you are applying for Gates Cambridge funding (see Gates website). See the Postgraduate Study References to support your Cambridge application for more information on the types of referees that you need depending on whether you are currently or recently finished studying.

Does the personal statement have to fall within the 1,000 character count?

Yes and this includes spacing, if there is more information that you’d like to add in support of your application you can use the  ‘Career Goals’ and ‘Additional Information to Support Application’ sections in your application.

Where are lectures taught?

Teaching takes place across various Cambridge sites, but will likely be most concentrated in Douglas House, Trumpington Road, and on the Addenbrookes Hospital site, including the Herschel Smith Building, on the (East) Forvie site. However, exact locations and timetable schedules will be circulated nearer the start of the course and are subject to change. For a map of Cambridge facilities, see https://map.cam.ac.uk/.
