Late or not depends from each university, you must check their deadlines.
As for scholarship, the only thing is that they can be awarded more easily if you apply early, as they'd have more left.
You should get your response in 1 to 4 weeks.

What does your profile look like? (work experience, GMAT score, undergraduate GPA?) Strong GMAT scores and work experience tend to be looked upon more positively when schools are awarding scholarships.

Edinburgh, Strathclyde and Lancaster seem the best options, with Leeds slightly behind.
I think you'll have good chances at these schools with your profile.

Interesting to see Nottingham Trent's business school overtaking the blue-blooded University of Nottingham Business School in the new undergraduate rankings from The Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/education/2018/may/29/nottingham-trent-leapfrogs-rival-in-university-league-table

NTU's business school isn't doing too bad for itself either, receiving both EQUIS and AACSB accreditation in a fairly short amount of time. Although we'll see if it breaks into any of the major rankings anytime soon. In any case, not a bad value for a dual-accredited MBA.

Thanks for the response !
I wanted to check about Loughborough University 1 year full time MBA program. How is it and does the student get any extension after graduating to stay back and find a job?

Thanks in advance!

You would generally need to convert to a Tier 2 visa, which would require you to have a job offer in hand. Most students who want to stay in the country would probably have a job lined up by graduation. Check with Loughborough to see if this is generally in the range of possibility, and if international students are (frequently) able to find jobs before they graduate.
