UK January 2027 intake: applications now open

Several partner universities in Manchester, Birmingham and Leeds have opened applications for the January 2027 intake, with limited scholarship funding for early applicants.

Intakes · 10 September 2026

Universities across the United Kingdom have opened their January 2027 intake for a range of postgraduate and undergraduate programmes. This intake is smaller than the September intake but suits students who complete their previous qualification later in the year or who want to start their UK journey sooner.

Early applicants have access to a wider range of scholarships and better accommodation choices. Popular subjects such as data science, business analytics and computer science tend to close first, so we recommend starting your application at least four months before the intake.

If you are considering the January intake, book a free consultation and we will confirm which of our partner universities still have places and what documents you need to prepare.

Rules, intakes and deadlines change and can vary by university. Please confirm current details with us before making decisions based on this article.
