For April 2027 entry, Integrated Global Studies (IGS) runs four selection systems with different exam dates and English thresholds. Selection System B, aimed at applicants living overseas, examines in November 2026 with its application window falling in October 2026; the general 2027 admissions page states only the month for each system, not exact opening or closing days, which are published in a separate Application Guide closer to each cycle and were not available at the time of this review. IGS is a newly created department, so no confirmed prior-year exact date exists to cite instead.
