High School Applications
Don’t Rush. Take Your Time.
Use the full application window to your advantage!
Early Application Myths
Applications are now open, but whether you apply on October 2 or December 2nd, you have the same chances of receiving an offer to a program of your choice!
It is a common misconception that applying early gives families an advantage in selection, when in fact, it does not. The matching process that generates offers for all applicants is run after the application process ends, so it is important that you take your time and use the full application window to plan and make good application decisions.
