A completed Supplementary Questions Form for this scholarship must be uploaded as part of this application. This is the only attachment required in Step 2 (as applicants should have already submitted references; transcripts; a CV etc with their application for study).<\/li>\n<p>n<\/p>\n<li>If you encounter any technical difficulties whilst using the online scholarship application form, in the first instance please try clearing your browser cache and ensure that you are using the latest version of Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer or Safari. If this does not fix your technical issue, please contact the School\u2019s IT Services team, providing your full name; the scholarship that you are applying for; and the technical issue that you have encountered. Please also attach a screenshot where possible.\u00a0servicedesk@lshtm.ac.uk.<\/li>\n<p>n<\/p>\n<li>Applicants who have already submitted a completed 2020-21 London-based MSc application and\/or have been made an Offer of Admission should apply for the scholarship by completing the scholarship application (Step 2 above) and submitting this by the scholarship deadline.<\/li>\n<p>n<\/p>\n<li>Each applicant should submit\u00a0<strong><em>only one<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0application for GSK Scholarships for Future Health Leaders for 2020-21.
