Help! I'm behind on my college applications and really need to find schools with deadlines that are still open. Any advice on this would be super helpful.
Certainly, many colleges do offer late application deadlines and some even offer what's known as "rolling admissions," where they review and accept applications until all spots in the incoming class are filled. Here are a few notable schools with deadlines that aren't till later in the year:
1. Arizona State University: They have what they call a "priority deadline" in November, but they continue to accept applications until July 1, following a rolling admissions model.
2. Penn State University: They have a rolling admissions policy and will continue to accept applications until their incoming class is filled, usually well into spring.
3. University of Houston: This university has a regular application deadline in June.
4. University of Alabama: They accept applications through the end of April.
5. University of Maine: They maintain a rolling admission policy until late April.
These are just a few examples, and a reminder that it's key to check with each individual college's admissions department to confirm their deadlines. Also, while these schools may have later deadlines, it's important to keep in mind that financial aid, housing, and class scheduling options may be impacted if you apply later rather than sooner. Good luck with your applications!
