Hi Anonymous,

Excluding holiday periods such as August in Western Europe, more or less all the months should be theoretically feasible. They tend though to put your starting day on September or January, to concentrate intakes and to do initial trainings in the same period. Sri also provided some useful information on the topic at the following link:
