No, applying for the September 2026 intake in the UK is not feasible now due to imminent university deadlines and tight visa processing timelines.

Most UK universities close applications for international students by July or early August. Visa processing can take 3-6 weeks during peak periods, which may not fit the remaining time before the September intake.

It is recommended to target the September 2027 intake instead. Applications for this intake open in September 2026, giving you enough time to prepare and apply.
