May 1st - National College Decision Day!

The light at the end of the tunnel is fast approaching! Students all across the U.S. will decide where they will commit to attend college in the Fall.

If you are still deciding on where you would like to attend college, consider revisiting the campus, speaking with current students attending that college, or talking to an alumnus of the school. Insight shared by those who have first-hand knowledge can be most helpful during a difficult decision time. If, for whatever reason, you feel you need an extension on the May 1st commitment date, contact the school's undergraduate admissions office for details.

For those students who have decided where they will attend, you must send in the initial deposit to secure a place. There is, however, one often overlooked task in this process. After having sent in the deposit and committing to the college of choice, it is advisable to tell any other schools that extended an offer of admission so they can release a place for another candidate. It is not a requirement to notify other schools of the decision to not attend but it is the considerate thing to do.
