I'm planning to apply to Ithaca College as a transfer student and want to make sure I don't miss any deadlines. Can someone tell me the application deadline and any other important dates I need to know?
The transfer application deadline for Ithaca College is a bit different from many other schools. Rather than having specific set dates for Fall and Spring semesters, Ithaca operates on a rolling admission basis for transfer students. This means that they continue to accept and review applications until all spots are filled.
However, for planning purposes, it is recommended you submit your application as early as possible to have the best chance of acceptance. Keep in mind that it does take a few weeks for Ithaca to process and review an application once it's submitted.
For fall semester admission, Ithaca suggests aiming to have your application completed by March 1, if possible. This gives you ample time for the admissions committee to review your application and for you to make necessary arrangements if accepted.
Additional key dates would include deadlines for financial aid applications. These tend to fall in mid-fall for the following academic year. For specifics, check out the Financial Aid section of Ithaca's website.
Remember that besides your application, you will need to send in your transcripts, a college report completed by a school official at your current institution, and a letter of recommendation. The deadline to have these in will be the same as the application deadline. The sooner you start organizing these things, the smoother your application process will be. Good luck!
