Yes, you can postpone your UK application to the January intake if you need time to collect your degree. However, January intake deadlines vary by university and are usually between October and December of the previous year.

Since today is June 16, 2026, most January 2026 deadlines have already passed. Your next option is the September 2026 intake, with deadlines typically from October to April, depending on the university.

Start preparing your documents early - such as transcripts, Statement of Purpose, Letters of Recommendation, and proof of English proficiency - to avoid missing upcoming deadlines.

If you need help with your application or have more questions, please contact your LeapScholar counsellor.
