September is the ninth month of the year, when the school year starts. In September, early September, the September deadline.
It is always capitalised and has thirty days. In Britain the school and academic year begins in it, which makes September rather than January the real start of the year for a great many people. Note that September, October, November and December are named as the seventh, eighth, ninth and tenth months, because the old Roman year began in March — so all four names have been two out for about two thousand years.
