*Deadlines may vary at each university and sometimes depend on the program. Visit the university websites directly for their deadlines.
- Early Action (EA) November 1 – November 15
- Early action is nonbinding: Students receive an early response to their application but do not have to commit to the university until the reply date of 1 May.
- You can apply to multiple universities under Early Action.
- Universities with early action admission usually contact applicants with their decision sometime between December 1 to January 31.
- Early Decision (ED): November 1 – November 15
- Early decision is binding: Students who are accepted as ED applicants must attend the college.
- As a result, you can only apply to one university under Early Decision.
- Students submit applications sooner and receive answers about admission faster.
- Restrictive Early Action (REA): November 1 – November 15
- Restrictive early action is nonbinding: Like early action, REA is non-binding, but students may only apply to one private university with REA. They also can’t apply Early Decision to other universities.
- Some universities refer to this process as “Single-choice Early Action”.
- Regular Decision (RD): January 1 – January 15
- With a later deadline of January 1 or mid January, Regular Decision applicants have plenty of time to work on their essays, retake their tests and fine tune their application.
- You can apply RD to as many universities as you’d like.
- Rolling Admissions: Varies by institution, often extending from September to May
- Rolling admission colleges accept applications until classes are about to start or until all the seats are full, whichever comes first.

*Deadlines may vary at each university and sometimes depend on the program. Visit the university websites directly for their deadlines.
- Early Action (EA) November 1 – November 15
- Early action is nonbinding: Students receive an early response to their application but do not have to commit to the university until the reply date of 1 May.
- You can apply to multiple universities under Early Action.
- Universities with early action admission usually contact applicants with their decision sometime between December 1 to January 31.
- Early Decision (ED): November 1 – November 15
- Early decision is binding: Students who are accepted as ED applicants must attend the college.
- As a result, you can only apply to one university under Early Decision.
- Students submit applications sooner and receive answers about admission faster.
- Restrictive Early Action (REA): November 1 – November 15
- Restrictive early action is nonbinding: Like early action, REA is non-binding, but students may only apply to one private university with REA. They also can’t apply Early Decision to other universities.
- Some universities refer to this process as “Single-choice Early Action”.
- Regular Decision (RD): January 1 – January 15
- With a later deadline of January 1 or mid January, Regular Decision applicants have plenty of time to work on their essays, retake their tests and fine tune their application.
- You can apply RD to as many universities as you’d like.
- Rolling Admissions: Varies by institution, often extending from September to May
- Rolling admission colleges accept applications until classes are about to start or until all the seats are full, whichever comes first.

In New Zealand, the academic year begins in late February or early March and finishes in November. Most universities in New Zealand operate on a semester system, with two terms per year.
You’ll often have the choice to start your course in semester one, beginning February or early March, or semester two, beginning in July. If you’re applying to begin a course in semester one, application deadlines will tend to be October earliest, but some stretch to November or December.
To start in semester two, your deadline will be in March, April, May or early July. Make sure you check your chosen university’s website directly for its specific deadlines.
