Which intake should I plan for next year, January or September in Ireland/Germany for a Master's?
Plan for the September intake for your Master's in both Ireland and Germany. September offers more program choices, greater scholarship opportunities, and aligns with the main academic calendar, giving you a full academic year experience.
- Ireland: September is the primary intake, with most universities and courses available. January intake is limited, with fewer options and scholarships.
- Germany: The main Wintersemester starts in September/October, covering most Master's programs. The alternative April (Summersemester) intake has fewer programs.
Choosing September will maximize your options and chances for scholarships. If you need guidance on timelines or applications, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
