The earliest intake for master's programs is:
- New Zealand: February (main intake, starts late February or early March)
- Australia: February (main intake, starts mid to late February)
- Germany: April (Summer Semester; note this is a smaller intake with fewer program options than the main September/October intake)
For the quickest start, February in New Zealand or Australia is your best option. In Germany, the earliest is April, but program choices may be limited.
