HHL admits once a year for a September start, with three early-bird rounds — around 30 November, 31 January and 31 March — followed by final deadlines around 31 May (non-EU applicants who need a visa) and 30 June (EU and visa-exempt applicants). Each earlier round carries a larger tuition discount (roughly €4,500 / €3,000 / €1,500 at the three early-bird cut-offs), so there is a material financial incentive to submit well ahead of the final deadline.
