IMPORTANT: Apply by Nov 1st deadline

While the thread is closed for discussion, it is worth reposting. You are only eligible for merit scholarship consideration and special programs depends if you apply by the Nov 1 priority deadline - no exceptions!

So, you need to understand that even if you have a perfect SAT score and are valedictorian at a highly competitive high school, if you apply regular decision, you will not be eligible for merit scholarships, and you will not be eligible to be considered for honors college or any other special program as an incoming freshman.
