I'm interested in applying to Georgia Southern University and want to make sure I don't miss any important dates. Can someone tell me what the application deadlines are for regular decisions and early action?
For Georgia Southern University, the deadlines for the application cycle are as follows:
1. Early Action: The deadline for early action is November 15th. If you apply for early action, you can expect to receive your decision by mid-January. One significant benefit of early action is that you'll have more time to review your financial aid package and make an informed decision.
2. Regular Decision: The priority deadline for regular decision applicants is February 1st. While the university will continue to review applications on a rolling basis, it is best to submit your application by this deadline to increase your chances of admission. You can expect to hear back from the university regarding your application status approximately two weeks after your application is complete, assuming your application is submitted by the priority deadline.
Remember that these are just the application deadlines. If you need to apply for financial aid, you'll want to submit your FAFSA as soon as possible, ideally as close to October 1st as you can manage. That's when the new FAFSA becomes available. It's also a good idea to apply for housing early if you're planning to live on campus.
Please keep in mind that these dates can change, so I would recommend confirming them on the official Georgia Southern University website. Good luck with your application process!
