A May start gives you the flexibility to begin your master’s sooner, graduate sooner and build your ultimate career. Get a head start on those joining in the busy September start date and progress quickly towards your career goals. It doesn’t matter whether you’re a recent graduate, looking for a career change or if you’ve missed the earlier application deadline; you don’t have to wait until September, and you can apply today to start in May.
We recommend applying as soon as possible, but deadlines for applications will close at the start of March. Some courses will still allow applications up until the course start date, so do get in touch if you still want to apply.

Internationals students
As an international student, a May start date may be the perfect time to apply for a postgraduate course. It may fit in with your undergraduate graduation and can provide additional time to prepare your visa application and get all your paperwork together.
We would always advise international students to apply as early as possible to meet Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) and visa timelines.
