when is the best time to apply?

<p>I am a current community college sophomore who is getting ready to apply to four-year universities in order to complete my bachelors degree in the fall of 2015. I was planning on waiting until the end of this coming fall semester to send in my applications but it was brought up earlier today by a family member that, that may be too late. The schools I plan on applying to are University of Delaware, TCNJ, Temple , Florida State University and Villanova. As a transfer applicant is the winter months say December and January too late? Should i send in my applications at different times? Does the time an application is sent affect my chances of acceptance? Also Im an international business major, I've done extensive research on all of these universities but does anyone know of other colleges that could possibly suit me? THANK YOU!</p>
