Yes, now is a good time to decide on your country and course if you plan to study in the USA for the September 2027 intake.

Starting your planning now gives you enough time to research universities, choose your course, prepare for exams like IELTS, and gather application materials before deadlines, which typically begin around August to October 2026. Early decisions also help you explore scholarships and visa requirements without last-minute stress.
