Our January courses
At UEL, we offer a variety of undergraduate and postgraduate courses starting in January. Many of our part-time, online and distance learning courses also feature January intakes.
While most university courses start in September, we offer January intakes to give you the chance to study exactly the same course on a different timescale. You'll start in January, but catch up with your classmates for the start of the second year, finishing the degree at the same time as September starters. This means that you'll be studying with us throughout the summer period.
It's a great opportunity if you've missed the September deadline or if you want to study a degree in a shorter time.
Applications for January 2026 courses are now open!
