Notification

Applications must be complete in order to be reviewed. If you receive an email regarding missing items, please check to see that the items have been sent. This information can also be viewed anytime on your student status page with the password issued upon receipt of your Common Application. Remember that items sent by your school may have crossed in the mail with our processing. As long as missing items are received with a submission or postmark date prior to the 15th of the month following your application plan your application will be reviewed on the desired timeline.

Admission Decisions

  • Accept: Accepted students for all non-binding plans must submit their enrollment deposit by May 1. The early decision enrollment deposit deadline is Jan. 30. Accepted students will also be invited to our spring event, Connections Day, to assist in the college selection process. If you are planning to apply for financial aid, you must file all financial aid forms by March 1.
  • Wait list: Applicants placed on the wait list will be notified of their status no earlier than May 1 and no later than June 30. Students must return the wait list response form to hold their place on the wait list.
  • Denial: Unfortunately, we receive many more applications than there are spaces in the entering class. Students who are not accepted are welcome to reapply the following semester after a successful full-time schedule with a 2.7 GPA or higher at another college. Please refer to our policies and procedures on reapplying as a transfer student.
  • Early action deferral to regular applicant pool: If you applied under either early action plan and received a letter stating that your application was deferred, this means that your application will be re-reviewed within our regular decision applicant pool. Simply put, the admissions committee needs more information (about you as well as the applicant pool as a whole) before it can make a final decision on your application. You should arrange to have your school counselor send your mid-year grades as soon as they are available. Also, feel free to send any additional information that you think may strengthen your application. Applicants will receive a decision by April 1.
  • Early decision deferral to regular applicant pool: If you applied under the binding early decision plan and received a letter stating that your application was deferred, this means that your application will be re-reviewed within our regular decision applicant pool. Students who are deferred are released from the terms of the early decision agreement. You should arrange to have your school counselor send your mid-year grades as soon as they are available. Also, feel free to send any additional information that you think may strengthen your application. Applicants will receive a decision by April 1.
