As of now, there are three intakes for Masters’s courses in the UK: January, May, and September. Many courses will have two of these intakes, but some may only have one. The most popular time to apply is for the September intake, as this gives students the longest time to complete their course. The May intake is the least popular, as it gives students the shortest time to complete their course. Application deadlines may vary depending on the courses and universities, so you need to check them beforehand.
