It's Not Too Late - How to Find Colleges Still Accepting Applications

If you're feeling worried about applying to college late, take a deep breath and relax. It's not too late! Many colleges and universities are still accepting applications.

NACAC's Late Openings List is an excellent resource for students who are looking for colleges that are still accepting applications. The list includes colleges and universities that didn't fill their first-year class during the traditional application cycle. This list is updated regularly, so it's important to check it frequently as some schools may still have spots available later in the summer.


If you missed the application deadline for a school you're interested in, don't panic! You may still have options available to you. Reach out to the admissions office and ask about their late application process. They may have a separate deadline or rolling admissions, which means they accept applications throughout the year. Be clear on the materials they need from you and try to submit them as soon as possible to give yourself the best chance of being considered for admission.


It's important to remember that even if you apply late, you still need to meet the school's admissions requirements. This includes submitting transcripts, test scores, essays, and any other required materials. Be sure to read the application instructions carefully and follow them closely to avoid any delays or issues with your application. With a little research and effort, you can find a school that's the right fit for you, even if you missed the regular application deadline.
