Given that it's currently January 2, 2025, many application deadlines are over. If you have not applied, I would suggest that you aim for the Fall 2026 intake. Applying early can have various benefits, if are struggling in any way for the same, it would be best to consult with a study abroad expert. They can guide you throughout the application process, with the admissions, and choosing the best universities according to your goals.
