one more thing: if I indeed need to complete the viva before July, because a job offer. Is this making sense to politiely ask for a viva in July? Please help!:-(:$

Thanks everyone! your replies are so useful. I am thinking of July actually. I will try to ask about the time of early July. cheers

Hello, I am new to here. It's my first time. I am completing the PhD draft that will be sent next week. I would like to know, is it common to have a viva during summer in UK? Thanks so much!
