JBums1028 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 I know that many programs have deadlines that have already passed or are fast approaching, but I'm considering adding a program to my list of schools to apply to. Does anyone know of any programs that have later deadlines, like in early to mid January or later, but also still offer assistantship funding?

mrsmithut Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 (edited) Here are a few I came across while deciding where to go. (Note: Just pulling this off my excel sheet I had for programs I was interested in. Double-check just to be sure). They all offer assistantship funding as far as I know. UMass-Amherst: Jan 15th deadline Colorado State: Jan 2nd deadline University of Utah: Jan 31st deadline Mississippi State: March 1st deadline (but would need to be in sooner for assistantships. Was told to have it in by early Feb to be safe) Ball State: Jan 15th deadline Hope this helps! Edited December 8, 2013 by mrsmithut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsparks63 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 IUP: January 1, 2014 Syracuse University: February 01, 2014 Binghamton University: Rolling Admissions (although I am not entirely how full their funding is) I am in the same boat JBums1028 as I am hoping to increase my chances of getting in somewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBums1028 Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 Thanks guys! Initially I wanted to keep everything managable but now I'm worried about the possibility of not getting accepted or not getting an assistantship/non-loan financial aid. But of course the applications take time to put together so... Syracuse might be a decent option for me because they match the AmeriCorps Ed award. I'll look into it!

JBums1028 Posted December 24, 2013 Author Share Posted December 24, 2013 Does anyone know of any more programs with later deadlines? What I've been finding is that most programs that have interview weekends in Feb/March are due in at least January. I think Syracuse (which you mentioned above) is the latest deadline that I've seen with a formal interview weekend. Eastern Michigan University has a rolling deadline, but you need to have the application submitted by Jan/Feb to be invited to the mid-March interview weekend. Another plus with EMU is they only require two letters of reference. Personally I decided to stay with my original four (GVSU, MSU, EMU, UConn), mostly because I didn't want to deal with harassing my letter writers anymore and travel to Connecticut will already be really expensive for me if I make candidate status.

Lulubelle Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Iowa's deadline is Jan. 15. Visit days are in March. Really good funding when you get an assistantship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
