2025 intakes

An intake is marked by the start and finish date for a given round of a programme of study. If a programme has more than one intake it means that you have multiple opportunities throughout the year to start the programme.

In general, you should apply well before the start date and your intake orientation. Some applications may stay open for a brief period after the start date on a limited and case-by-case basis. For dates and information on when your orientation will be held, visit our orientation page.
