I'm interested in Baruch College and trying to understand their admissions process. Do they offer rolling admissions? If so, how does it affect my chances compared to applying at traditional deadlines? Any insights would be great as I get ready to apply.
Baruch College, part of the City University of New York (CUNY) system, does not utilize a "rolling admissions" process. They have set deadlines for both the fall and spring semesters. For the fall semester, the priority deadline is typically February 1st, while for the spring semester, it is usually September 15th.
This means that all complete applications received by the deadline are considered together, rather than on an individual basis as they come in, which is the case with rolling admissions. Applicants can expect to receive their admissions decision a few weeks after the application deadline.
While applying early can benefit you in terms of sorting out housing, scheduling classes, and other logistical aspects, it does not affect your chances of being admitted as it might in a rolling admissions system. Your application will be evaluated against all the other applications received by the deadline. That said, make sure you submit your application by their deadline to be considered for admission.
You can always reach out to Baruch College's admissions office directly if you have more specific questions about their process. Best of luck with your application!
