I'm interested in applying to universities in California and wonder which ones have late application deadlines. I'm a bit behind schedule and looking for some options that still accept applications. Any tips or advice?
Here are a few California universities with later deadlines or rolling admissions:
1. Santa Clara University: The regular decision deadline is typically early-to-mid-January.
2. University of San Francisco: The regular decision deadline is usually mid-January.
3. University of the Pacific: The regular decision deadline often extends to January 15th.
4. California Baptist University: This university has a rolling admissions policy, so you can typically apply anytime before the academic year starts.
5. Notre Dame de Namur University: Similar to Cal Baptist, this university has rolling admissions so you can apply throughout the year.
It's crucial, however, not just to meet the application deadlines but also ensure you meet financial aid and housing application deadlines if they are relevant to you. And keep in mind that spaces might fill up, so applying earlier rather than later is still generally better, even if the college has a late deadline or rolling admissions.
Also, remember that the quality of your application matters a lot, so take enough time to properly complete all components, like essays, even if you're applying near a deadline.
Be sure to check each schools' admissions webpage for the most accurate and up-to-date information as these deadlines can change from year to year. Good luck with your applications!
