Most undergraduate programs in the UK start in September, with only a limited number offering a January intake. January entry is available at some universities for specific courses, but options are fewer and depend on the institution.

For January 2027, application deadlines are typically between mid-October and mid-November 2026. Since it is already August 4, 2026, these deadlines are very close. If you have not started your application, it may be difficult to apply for January, and many students opt for September 2027 instead.
