Can I Still Apply?
Find information about available programs and deadlines below. If you're interested in learning more about our programs, check out our Virtual Advising Hub.
Important!
Many countries require you to have a valid passport in hand 4-6 months prior to arrival to meet student entry visa processing deadlines. Plan ahead and apply or renew your passport early. Do not wait until the last minute.
U.S. Citizens can refer to the U.S. Department of State’s website for more information about passports and processing time.
Upcoming Application Deadlines/Late Application
Program deadlines are typically the last day to submit your online application. When possible, we will work with you to accommodate a later application. After receiving your welcome email, you will have a short time to login to your Student Gateway portal and submit your supporting documents. To learn more about the full USAC Admission process, check out How to Apply.
Late application
Once deadlines have passed, late application may be possible on a case-by-case basis. You must have a passport that is valid for a minimum six months beyond the program end date and be prepared to pay in full or complete payment arrangements by the balance due deadline or upon acceptance if the due date has passed. If your program requires a student visa, you may not have sufficient time to obtain the visa in advance and will need to apply once you arrive onsite (where allowed). Contact the Enrollment Specialist to inquire about late admission.
