Tips
Apply for Admission
- Now is the time to apply for three to five colleges or universities that you are interested in attending. Check the universities' website and brochures for specific application deadlines. Some deadlines are as early as October!
Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)
- This is an important step for financial aid. You will need to complete the application soon after October 1st for the following academic year.
Establish an email account
- Most colleges and universities will email you periodic updates on your application status. Having a separate email account that you can check often will help eliminate missing important emails.
Deposits
- When you receive admissions offers remember to send in any required deposits. Deposits are normally refundable until a date determined by the school. Review the date for refundable deposits.
