What does it mean when the President of the United States declares November “National College Application Month?” It means four very important things: 1) applying to college has become a national preoccupation, (2) your stress is shared by lots of people, you are not alone (!), (3) you can be proud of what you have accomplished thus far, and (4) it’s time to make\u00a0sure you that you are in range\u00a0of your fall-term senior year <\/span><\/span>goals for\u00a0college applications with November-January 1st deadlines. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

WHY HIGHLIGHT NOVEMBER?<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
Drawing attention to November functions as a way to acknowledge what you already have accomplished during your first semester of senior year as well as what you can expect is the norm for November activities; it is also functions as a reminder of deadlines. Many Early Decision I applications are due on November 1st or 15th. Many Early Decision II or Early Action applications are due in December. Many, if not all, large public universities require applications to be submitted by November 30th (for example: University of California, Cal State colleges, and University of Texas colleges) or December 1st (for example, the University of Washington). <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
