I'm submitting a few applications through the Common App and want to make sure I don't miss any deadlines. What's the typical regular decision deadline I should keep in mind?
For most colleges that use the Common Application, the usual Regular Decision deadline is January 1st. However, some colleges may have different deadlines, some on December 15th or others extending to January 15th or later. Always check the specific deadline for each school on their admissions webpage to make sure you're accurate. Every school is different, and you want to be sure you're getting the right information. An example is the University of Michigan, which has a Regular Decision deadline of February 1st.
Remember, being early never hurts. It offers you the chance to avoid any last-minute complications or stresses that come with rushing to meet a deadline. It also allows you time to carefully review your application and make sure everything is as you want it. Prioritize your time wisely and good luck with your applications!
