Decisions by February/ March

Graduate School

<p>Hello,</p>

<p>Can someone mention few colleges below that make decisions by February/ March for Masters Biology Program?</p>

<p>My university, Illinois Institute of Technology, makes decisions on a rolling basis once the application is complete for Masters in Biology.</p>

<p>I’m curious - why would you want to know this information?</p>

<p>Probably because a Visa is required to attend and sometimes it takes a couple of visits to get one. If the applicant gets an admission in March, then there is time to put together the financial documents, get the I-20 sent from the U.S. and then set up the Visa appointment. The whole process can be rather involved and take several months.</p>

<p>I think you should look into schools offering rolling admissions, that way the sooner you apply, the sooner you will have a response. Often state Universities have rolling admissions, but I believe there are also private universities who do so for the Masters programs, like BU and Tufts for instance.</p>

<p>Very true. Also I am already in US but I am on OPT status and it expires in May so wanted to get acceptance letter before that.</p>
