I'm hoping to attend Oakton Community College's summer session but I'm not sure when the application is due. Can anyone tell me the deadline and if there's any flexibility with submission?
Oakton Community College operates on a rolling admissions policy, meaning there isn't a concrete deadline for summer session applications. They continually accept and review applications until the class roster for a given session is filled.
However, it is recommended that you apply as soon as possible as classes can fill up quickly. To secure your spot and make sure you have sufficient time to settle your financial aid, schedule your classes, and address any potential issues, try to submit your application at least a few weeks before the start of the summer term.
In terms of flexibility, Oakton Community College is quite considerate, and they understand that circumstances can sometimes delay application submission. However, it's always best to get in touch with the admissions office directly to discuss any concerns you may have about the timing of your application. Keep in mind that the sooner you apply, the more likely you are to secure a place in your desired classes.
Remember, along with your application, you'll need to send in your high school transcripts and any ACT or SAT scores if you have them. You might also have to take placement tests in English and Math unless you're exempt. Make sure to factor in the time that these steps will take when planning your application.
