I wanted to know when the applications start for fall 2017 admissions.

They are school dependent, each school will open their admissions applications on their own schedule.

Check with the admissions department website for each of the schools you are interested in.

Some schools open applications as early as July, while others wait until September or October. The deadlines are usually December.

Some things to keep in mind:

- It doesn't matter when you submit your application, as long as it's before the deadline, unless the school's website says otherwise (e.g. rolling admissions)

- Remember to give your letter writers a few weeks notice so that they can complete the letter prior to the deadline.

- Some schools have an earlier deadline than usual for international students due to the extra processing.

- Some schools have separate deadlines for the materials you are responsible for (e.g. essays etc.) and materials from others (transcripts, letters)

- Account for time for you to get official transcripts and test scores, if necessary!
