Hello! I'm a bit confused about the deadlines for early action application submissions. When should I have my applications submitted by? Do all colleges have the same deadline?
Hello! Early Action (EA) deadlines may vary by college, but the most common deadline is November 1st. Some colleges may have an October 15th, November 15th, or December 1st deadline instead. You should definitely double-check the specific deadlines for the colleges you are considering since they can vary.
Keep in mind that in addition to submitting your application, you'll also want to make sure that your letters of recommendation, transcripts, and any required standardized test scores (if applicable) are sent in by the deadline. It's a good idea to give your recommenders and school counselor ample time to prepare and submit their own materials.
To avoid any last-minute issues, it's best to finalize and submit your applications a few days before the deadline. Make sure to verify the specific EA deadlines for each college on their official websites or by contacting their admissions offices.
Good luck with your applications!
