I'm interested in applying to the College of Wooster and am wondering if they offer rolling admission. It would be great to have some flexibility with deadlines. If anyone knows about their process, I'd appreciate the help!
The College of Wooster does not offer rolling admissions. They offer an Early Decision (ED) round that has a deadline of November 1, an Early Action round of December 5, a second Early Decision (ED II) round with a deadline of January 15 and a Regular Decision with a deadline of February 15 as well. Once the Regular Decision deadline has passed, Wooster Admissions will review applications and release decisions on a specified date, not on an ongoing or "rolling" basis.
Remember, however, that Early Decision is a binding commitment. You should only apply in this way if you are absolutely certain that the College of Wooster is your first choice, and you are willing and able to accept an offer of admission. Please use their net price calculator to estimate your potential financial aid package and ensure affordability in advance if you aim for ED.
You should consider submitting your application well before the deadlines anyway, as this will allow for any unforeseen circumstances that might delay your submission, and give you ample time to ensure that your application is as strong as it can be.
