Submitting College Applications at the Last Minute?

No, the applications that come in before the deadline will all be considered for admission to the university. The reason for this is that they are reviewed by a committee. Usually no single individual makes the decision to admit a student. The reason for this is to prevent fraud and bribery from having any influence on the admission of students into various programs.

It would be naive, however, to admit that there is no such fraudulent admissions into college programs, It has been known to occur, but university procedures and processes have been designed to prevent fraud from occurring.

Universities want to give everyone who applies to their programs a fair chance at being admitted to their programs. Their reputations are built on integrity, honesty, and equality of opportunity. When applications for admission come in after the deadline, they should go into the rejection pile, and the late applicants should be informed about that or put on a wait list for the next admissions cycle.

I'm not sure if sending in an application one day before the deadline will reflect negatively on you or not. It may depend on the particular college.

If you can send it in earlier, that would be best.

If you are not able to submit the application until the day before, you will

want to make sure that the application is filled out completely and accurately,

and as neatly as possible. Also, if there is any other paper work that you need

to submit with the application make sure you don't forget to submit that.

Primarily you want to make sure that you are fulfilling all of the requirements

for submitting the application (completely filled out with accurate information;

additional paper work if required; application fee if required). You don't want

them to send you the application back because you forgot to include all information

or you forgot to submit any additional paper work that they may require.

Also, if other signatures are required (parent, guardian, spouse, etc.) make sure

that you get those required signatures. If only your signature is required on the

application, don't forget to sign it.

Make sure that it is done right, and get it in as soon as you can.

if its rolling admission (community college) then your fine. if its a state school you need the grades to get in, then you need them to actually go thru the process of accepting you.

many schools make u apply, then send in an application fee or they wont even glance at your application. then you gotta register, and apply for fafsa and all this other crap. your best bet is to call them up and ask all this stuff. make a list of questions to ask. im sure you will be transfered to lots of different extensions and you will get alot of answering macines so i would try to do this earlier then the deadline, unless you have no choice

what school did you go to

There may be less spaces so competition might be higher, but there will be spaces. Each University must give equal consideration to all applicants so you shouldn't worry too much about it.
