stupidest question ever (not sat related)

<p>When do I start applying for colleges? Is it in summer junior year or summer senior year? and what if I want to have a gap year?</p>

<p>lol you can start applying right around September senior year. EA/ED usually have a Nov. 1 deadline, while RD(Regular Decision) usually has a Jan. 1 deadline. Most people don’t apply until November/December.</p>

<p>what if i want to have a gap year between senior year and college? some people do that and does it make a difference if i apply to colleges after I finish senior year?</p>

<p>You check which colleges you want to apply to and many of them allow you to “defer” a year AFTER you are accepted.</p>
