Does RSM degree timeline clash with July FT role start? (Finance & Investments)

I am considering applying for a MScFI (Finance & Investments) at RSM and the degree timeline shown on the website indicates that it finishes at the end of August (31/08). On the other hand, many FT IB analyst programmes in London start in July. I'm trying to understand when people can really finish this degree at the earliest and if it's possible to still start a FT July role in the same year, so let's say I finish my degree in 2025 and start my role in July 2025.

I personally don't know anyone who did that degree as I'm not from the Netherlands so will greatly appreciate any insights on that Master's programme.

Ask the program. Also consider the vast majority of students do SA then FT. Maybe offcycle then FT is best?
