For a master's program in the USA starting January 2027, most scholarship application deadlines are between September and November 2026. Some universities may have priority deadlines as early as September or October 2026.

To maximize your chances, start preparing and submitting scholarship applications by early September 2026. Deadlines vary by university and scholarship, so applying early is recommended.
