Intakes and Admission Deadlines

Imperial College London lets you jumpstart your future whenever you're ready! They offer three intakes throughout the year, giving you ultimate flexibility. 

 

Here's the breakdown:

 

  • September (Fall Semester): This is the most popular time to begin, like the official "first day" of school for universities. It's a great way to meet a ton of new people starting fresh at the same time. Think of it as a giant group project where everyone's new and excited!

     

  • January (Winter Semester): Maybe you finished a course early or just feel impatient to start – no problem! The January intake lets you jump right in mid-year. It's like joining a new club where everyone's already halfway through the first project, but they're still happy to welcome you!

     

  • May (Summer Semester): (not all programs offer this): This is a shorter, more focused option for some programs. Think of it like a summer camp for super-smart students – you'll dive deep into a specific subject and knock out some credits before the next semester even starts!
