Key dates for applying as a transfer to Iona College?

I'm planning on transferring to Iona College and I'd like to know about their application deadlines. When should I apply to make sure I don't miss any important dates?

Iona College operates on a rolling admission basis for transfer students, which means they accept applications at almost any time during the year and make admission decisions as applications are completed. There are two hard deadlines after which you will not receive your decision in time to start the following semester. Here are those dates:

- Fall admission: Apply by August 1. This ensures your application will be considered in plenty of time for the fall semester, which usually starts at the end of August.

- Spring admission: Apply by December 20 for consideration for the spring semester, which usually starts in early January.

Also, always be sure to check with Iona's transfer admissions office for the most accurate and up-to-date information. It's always a good idea to verify this type of information directly with the college, as policies and deadlines can change from year to year.

Lastly, keep in mind financial aid deadlines. The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) can be filled out as early as October 1 for the next school year, and you want to make sure you submit that as soon as possible to maximize your eligibility for financial aid.
