SCU Application Deadline?

Hi guys! I'm just trying to keep up with deadlines and was wondering when the application deadline is for Santa Clara University? Early Decision, Regular Decision? Is there anything else I should know about the process or deadlines?

The deadlines for applying to Santa Clara University (SCU) vary based on the type of application you are submitting. The deadlines for the2024-2025 admissions cycle are as follows:

- Early Decision I: The ED I deadline is typically November 1. This is a binding agreement, which means if you are admitted, you are obliged to enroll unless the financial aid package is not sufficient.

- Early Action: The EA deadline is November 1 as well. This is non-binding, so if you're admitted, you have until May1 to decide whether you'll attend.

- Early Decision II: The ED II deadline is typically January 7. Similar to ED I, this is binding but offers the chance to show more of your senior year grades and activities.

- Regular Decision: The RD deadline is January 7. Decisions are generally released in late March, and admitted students have until May 1 to decide.

In terms of things to know about the process, make sure you have your test scores (if you choose to submit them), letters of recommendation, transcripts, and essays ready to submit by the deadlines above. It's important to give yourself adequate time to compile your application and not rush last minute.

Lastly, keep track of when financial aid documents are due. If you're applying for financial aid, the FAFSA is usually due by March 2 for California residents, and the CSS profile (required by SCU) should be submitted by February 1. However, you should always confirm these dates on the school's website or with the admissions department directly.
