Heriot-Watt University typically has two main intakes: September and January. The September intake is the primary admission period, with applications opening a year in advance. The January intake offers limited courses and shorter deadlines.
For undergraduate programs, the deadline for UK students via UCAS is usually January 31, while international students may apply until June 30. Postgraduate deadlines vary by course but generally fall between June and August for September entry. January intake deadlines are often in November.
Applicants should verify specific deadlines on the university’s official website, as dates may differ for certain programs or scholarships.
