Last checked . Maintained by Dan Brittain, with official-source rechecks before each milestone. This independent guide covers the pathways listed below, not every special-entry or international scheme. Your university invitation takes precedence.

Invitation dates, interview booking deadlines and interview dates are different. A published window does not mean every day is available. Provisional dates remain provisional; unresolved dates are labelled rather than estimated.
