Is it possible to apply for the January intake or the September intake for MBA programs in UK/USA?

Yes, you can apply for MBA programs in both January and September intakes, depending on the university and country.
- UK: September is the main intake with the widest choice of MBA programs and scholarships. Some universities also offer a January intake, but with fewer options.
- USA: Most MBA programs start in the Fall (August/September). A limited number of universities offer a Spring (January) intake, but course choices may be more restricted.
January intakes are less common and may have earlier deadlines. For program availability and next steps, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
