I've been checking out UC Santa Cruz for a while now, but I'm not totally clear on when the regular decision deadline is. I'd appreciate any info on this so I can stay organized and on track with my applications!
UC Santa Cruz, like all University of California (UC) schools, follows the UC system's application timeline. For the undergraduate application, the filing period begins on October 1st and ends on November 30th. Therefore, make sure to finalize and submit your application by November 30th to meet the deadline, as there's no separate "regular decision" deadline as you might see at other individual colleges. The UC system generally releases admissions decisions in March, though the exact date can vary. So, get started on your application as soon as it opens on October 1st to give yourself ample time to review and revise before it closes on November 30th.
