Yes, you can apply for a master's program in the UK after one year of work experience.

Most UK universities require a completed bachelor's degree for master's admission. Some programs - especially in business, management, or professional fields - may give added value to your work experience, but one year is generally sufficient for meeting basic requirements. Your application will be assessed on your academic background, personal statement, and references.

If you need guidance on choosing the right program or preparing your application, please reach out to your LeapScholar counsellor.
