06 Aug 2026 · Answered by Edayachandiran Velmurugan · 1 min read
UK and Ireland universities mainly offer admissions in these months:
UK:
- September/October: Main intake for most courses.
- January/February: Secondary intake, mostly for select postgraduate programs.
- May/June: Limited intake for specialized or short courses.
Ireland:
- September (Autumn): Primary intake with the widest program selection.
- January (Spring): Secondary intake, mainly for some postgraduate courses.
- May (Summer): Rare, mostly for private colleges or short-term programs.
September is the main intake, but January is a strong alternative for postgraduates.
September or January: which intake can you still make?
