Hey folks, I'm thinking of applying to Clark College in Oregon. Does anyone know what the regular decision process is like and if there are any important dates I should be aware of?
It seems there may be a slight mixup. Clark College is actually located in Vancouver, Washington, not Oregon. It's near the Oregon border and the city of Portland, which may cause some confusion.
Clark College operates on a rolling admissions basis, meaning you can apply at any time of the year and expect to hear back within a few weeks of submitting your application. It doesn't have traditional early action or regular decision deadlines as some four-year universities do.
However, it's important to consider other key dates for financial aid, housing (if applicable), and course registration. The FAFSA opens on October 1st each year and it's beneficial to apply as soon as possible for maximum eligibility. Class registration dates vary by semester, but usually occur a few months before the semester start.
It's always best to reach out directly to the admissions office for the most accurate information. If you're looking for four-year colleges in Oregon, you might be thinking of Lewis & Clark College in Portland, or Clark Honors College, which is a part of the University of Oregon. Both have different applications processes and deadlines compared to Clark College in Washington.
