Deadline Approaching for Early Decision Applications

The deadline for first-year candidates for Fall 2025 to apply Early Decision is Friday, November 1, 2024, at 11:59 p.m. (applicant's local time).

While it is most important that candidates submit their admissions application by the November 1 deadline, we understand that counselor and teacher recommendations and transcripts may arrive after the deadline. Applicants may review their status portal to track their materials.

Students personally affected by natural disasters, community or personal disturbances or other extenuating circumstances this fall are invited to email us at ugrad-ask@columbia.edu if their application will be arriving late. Please see more about deadline flexibility for extenuating circumstances.

If you have any questions, please contact Undergraduate Admissions at 212-854-2522, or at ugrad-ask@columbia.edu.
