Fellows applied to university, getting course list (4)
I believe the answer is:
menu
'course list' is the definition.
(list of food courses)
'fellows applied to university' is the wordplay.
'fellows' becomes 'men' (fellow can mean a man).
'applied to' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'university' becomes 'u' (abbreviation for university).
'men'+'u'='MENU'
'getting' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for menu that I've seen before include "Food programme of restaurant" , "Cafe's list" , "List of (computer or food) items" , "List of dishes available in restaurant" , "Card" .)
