Intake

Also called Fall intake, September intake, January intake
What is an intake?
An intake is a starting point in a university's academic year. Most countries run a major intake in September (called Fall in North America) and a smaller one in January, with Australia and New Zealand running February and July. Applications typically open eight to twelve months ahead, and the funded places in a programme are usually filled from the main intake.
