In response to the continued developments of COVID-19 and to support the health and wellbeing of our university community, our Fall 2020 admission deadlines have been extended to July 31 for domestic applicants and July 1 for international applicants. See the updated deadlines below. We will continue to update this page regarding admission deadlines as we continue to monitor the COVID-19 pandemic.
You may want to add these to the calendar on your phone or fridge—along with those other important dates like mom’s birthday.
