Where to find fall 2025 transfer deadlines?

I'm planning ahead for a possible transfer to a different college in the fall of 2025. What's the best way to keep track of these deadlines a few years out?

While it's great to plan ahead for potential college transfer options, keep in mind that specific deadlines for fall 2025 might not be available just yet, as colleges typically update their deadlines annually.

For reliable and generally up-to-date information on transfer deadlines, I'd recommend checking the transfer admissions page on each college's website. They typically give you all the necessary details about deadlines, required documents, and the transfer process as a whole. Make a list of the schools you're considering and check their pages periodically, and especially starting the winter before you want to transfer (so winter 2024, in your case).

While it may be a bit early for specific information on 2025, looking at the current or past cycles can give you an idea about the timeline. Most colleges have somewhat consistent transfer deadlines, often around in March or April for fall admission.

Finally, applications such as the Common App or Coalition App also provide deadline information for member schools that allow for transfer applications, and these are typically updated annually.

Remember that keeping track of these deadlines is just the tip of the iceberg. Start to prepare material like transcripts, letters of recommendation, and potential essays well in advance of your transfer application. Building a timeline for yourself can make the process a little less overwhelming.
