Applying to SU
|
The college application process is ahead of you. You have an admissions essay to draft, piles of homework to do and senior year activities to plan. Applying Early Decision (ED) is one way to help relieve some of the pressure. You could have your application out the door before the holidays and maybe even have a decision before or shortly after New Year’s Day. It’s not a step to take hastily, but if you can confidently answer “yes” to each of the following questions, then applying Early Decision may be right for you: 1 Have you researched this college as well as others that interest you? 2 Have you visited a variety of campuses while students and faculty are around? 3 Are your academic, extracurricular and social needs going to be met? 4 Did you meet with an admissions officer to find out if you are a realistic applicant? 5 Have you discussed college costs and aid with someone in the financial aid office? 6 Have you talked about your decision with your family and your guidance counselor? 7 Are you ready to stop your college search now because a college is clearly your first choice? As you investigate Susquehanna University, consider the following advantages of Early Decision at SU: • Two different ED options: Early Decision I – applications due by November 15 for notification by December 1, or Early Decision II – applications due by January 1 for notification by January 15. • Applications are given extra consideration, as they are the first to be read. • Early notification on merit-based scholarships. • Candidates for need-based financial aid are not expected to make a final ED commitment without a financial aid package from SU. We will work with you prior to the February 15 deposit date to provide financial aid answers necessary for your enrollment decision. • Housing preferences for ED students are more likely to be met when their enrollment deposits are paid by February 15. • If we're not able to admit you ED, you will be deferred to the regular decision pool so you’ll have time to provide us with improved grades and test scores. For more information about applying Early Decision, please contact the Office of Admissions.
