The UK offers three main intakes for postgraduate programs: September/October (the primary and most popular intake with the widest course and scholarship options), January/February (a secondary intake with fewer courses, suitable if September deadlines are missed), and May/June (limited to some specialized programs). With your strong academic background and recent MBA, the September/October intake is the best choice for maximum course availability and opportunities. If you need more preparation time, January/February is also an option. Since not all universities offer all intakes or courses every term, your LeapScholar counsellor can guide you in identifying the best-fit options.
