Seniors – What To Do in October

Seniors should be well into the application process possibly having some applications already sent in. This is a time to pay very close attention to details and dates. Many schools have an Early Action date (often in November) that, although not binding, allows seniors to receive their admissions decision in December or early January. Every year, we love getting calls in December from seniors who already have an acceptance letter.

Both the CSU and UC applications went on-line October 1. Seniors can submit the CSU application any time between now and November 30. The UC application can be filled out now but cannot be sent until November 1.Click here for a downloadable Quick Start guide for UC applications. Seniors, please don’t wait until the last minute to send in your applications. Not only will it ruin your Thanksgiving; the systems are often slow the last few days and have been known to crash.
