Hey, After you finish your masters in London, you still apply for the SA roles right? Does anyone know about 2021 cycle in London? I saw many 2021 threats but I guess they concern US recruitment. Any help?

My bet would be on off-cycles if you're finishing a masters but just speculating from friends. Alternatively, you could apply for SA but that would mean you would have a gap year in between your SA stint and starting FT, contingent on you being successful of course. I know for a fact HR are usually fine with doing so once you have your foot in the door but that is probably bank specific - others should be able to provide a more solid input.
I did it in the final year of my undergraduate and was given an offer for the following year. Tried to start right after my SA but hr told me they were full..
Yeah, that's what I meant when referring to the gap year. I meant to say HR are usually chill for you start the year after even if you are not doing a masters. Namely, you are not a penultimate year which means OP can apply to SA positions even if he/she is a final year Msc student. What did you end up doing?
But how can I do an off-cycle internship during masters, you mean the ones after June?
Yes. There are a couple of off-cycles that start during the summer which would be aimed at students such as yourself. You should definitely apply to both SA and off-cycles and see what works.
Does anyone recommend a specific modeling platform (wall street prep vs others) when applying to SA positions? Is it worth it for only an SA?
