Timeline for UK/Europe target uni (2025) master's admissions

Is it too late to apply for 2025 start date (August/September) master's programs? When are the deadlines for master's admissions for most UK target schools (including Oxbridge, LBS, UCL)? Is the application deadline similar to HSG or HEC?

I meant 2025. For 2025 summer internships that require a 2026 graduation date (applications to open September), is it okay on your CV to just only write the course title of the 2025 target master's you have already applied to as at the time of summer internship application?

Why is it said that UCL master's isn't target? Is the entry requirement no longer comparable to a master's in Imperial or LSE—as it is for the undergraduate bachelor's admission?

I wouldn’t give the name of the university on your CV if you haven’t been accepted yet. Just put MSc Finance with a short description saying that you are applying to master programmes. And the above commenter is right, UCL is not a target master. Same with schools such as Warwick etc they’re good for undergrad but not for masters.
