Last Minute Courses: How to Promote Your Masters Courses With September Starts

As we move into the final stretch of the UK 2025 recruitment cycle, one thing is clear: student interest in Autumn starts is still going strong. Our Pulse data data shows that interest for Autumn 2025 starts remaians the most popular entry point for all audiences, making now the ideal time to get your courses in front of the right audience. Our Last Minute Courses Hub is now live and it’s the perfect opportunity for universities to connect with prospective postgraduates who are actively looking for courses starting this September.

Whether they’ve had a change of plans or are applying later than expected, thousands of students are still making decisions and our Hub puts your Masters courses directly in their path.

 
 

A critical recruitment window

Our Student Engagement Team is busy making sure that students are aware of their options and have all the information and advice they need to nail a last-minute application. We’ll be promoting plenty of student-facing content for late applicants throughout the summer, both on our student blog and in our weekly newsletters. But, what we need you to do is get your courses out in front of them!

 
 

Why list on the Last Minute Courses Hub?

Adding your courses costs nothing and ensures visibility in one of the most critical windows for late-stage decision-makers. And this year, postgraduate student demand is just as high.

 
 

How to advertise your last minute courses
