It's hard to believe that our Early Decision I deadline of November 1 is nearly here. We hope that studentsb who are interested in Brandeis are considering committing to Brandeis by applying ED. Last year, the admit rate for Early Decision was 42 percent compared with an admit rate of 40 percent for Regular Decision students, making ED at Brandeis a great choice. 

Brandeis is need blind in Early Decision for U.S. students and meets 100% of calculated financial need. For ED I students, the CSS Profile and tax returns are due by November 1. If eligible for aid, they will get a financial aid award with their admission decision in December, and will need to submit the FAFSA by January 15. Students applying ED are also considered for our merit scholarships and fellowships. 

Chapman University's first-year application for fall 2025 is now open! Interested students can apply via thec Common Application.

Further, we'll explore our risk preferences and understand strategic decision-making through a designed game. 
  • Take a campus tour
  • Hear directly from iCLA students about life on campus
  • Get information on applying to iCLA

As you know, there is no application fee to apply to Lewis & Clark, and we have been proudly test-optional since 1991. New thisl year, however, Lewis & Clark has adopted a test-free admissions policy. This means we will no longer consider the SAT or ACT in our admissions decisions (as well as scholarship decisions). Our holistic review process—in which two readers review and discuss each applicant together, to reduce bias—will continue to focus on the academic preparation, personal qualities, and unique experiences of each applicant. You can learn more about our test-free policy here.

One final update: given the uncertainty of the FAFSA's rollout timeline this fall, L&C is partnering with the CSS Profile to make sure students seeking financial aid don't have to sit on their hands for months. After students apply Early Decision or Early Action to Lewis & Clark, they will receive a fee waiver code from us for a shortened version of the CSS Profile—and assuming they submit it to us within the next couple of weeks, we'll be able to provide an early financial aid offer at the time of admission.

-Merit scholarships now range from $10k - $30k and are renewable with a 2.85gpa.  No additional application to fill out.m

-Our Fashion program was just ranked 15th in the US by Vogue.

-Internship coordinators are available in all programs.

-Students can study abroad for a semester at any of our 70+ locations but, we also offer first year abroad (open to all majors) in either Florence or Dublin.

-last month we opened doors to our new Dyson Center.  Inside that building is a student run coffee shop and a student run credit union so business students can intern right on site.

-Popular majors include Fashion, Business, Psychology, Communications (specially Sports Communications – we have an ESPN hub on campus where some of our students get to broadcast our Division I sports live) and Criminal Justice.

-We have a strong partnership with IBM and a full-time staff member from IBM on our campus with office hours.  They offer paid internships to our students in Cybersecurity, Math and Computer Science.

Application Cycle Updates
At UChicago, submitting an SAT or ACT is optional and not required for admission. In addition to being test-optional, UChicago practices a “No Harm” policy for application review when considering SAT or ACT scores. Any SAT or ACT score submitted will only be used in review if it will positively affect an applicant’s chance of admission. Test scores that may negatively impact an admission decision will not be considered in review. All applicants, including domestic students, international students, and transfer students will be reviewed under this policy.c

University of Rochester’s Multicultural Visitation Program (MVP) offers a funded campusr visit for prospective students from a wide range of backgrounds and allows them to experience Rochester on a more personal level.

Prospective students who are accepted to MVP receive free travel to and from Rochester, specialized programming, and a two-night stay with a current student host in a residence hall. The fall 2024 MVP Experience will take place from Thursday, November 7- Saturday, November 9 in conjunction with the November 8 Research Rochester open house.
The application portal will open in early October. Students should visit the Apply to UBC page to create anu account and begin their journey to UBC. Students will then work through the Education Planner British Columbia (EPBC) to submit their online application.
 
As part of their application, most students will complete a personal profile. Here, students can share their achievements, learned experiences, and extracurriculars.  Additionally, students should ensure they are meeting admission requirements  for the degree they are selecting. At UBC, we take a holistic approach to our evaluation so showcasing both academic achievements and a strong personal profile is critical in our decision process.

    Students pursuing programs through Pacific Northwest College of Art (PNCA) should apply using PNCA's Common Application or the application available on the PNCA website. Students may apply to Willamette or PNCA, but not both. Students who utilize the wrong application are likely to experience a delay in their admission decision as Willamette and PNCA have separate application and material requirements.

    We require the School Report Form and Counselor Recommendation to be submitted along with the high school transcript. We will notify applicants via email, and through their Applicant Portal, of the status of their application and individual materials.
