<p>Hey I was just wondering when people usually apply to college. I am currently a junior and summer is just around the corner. When is a good time to actually start sending in applications and stuff?</p>
<p>Most won't be available until at least late August/early September, but if you want an idea as to what essays may require, check out school's that interest you and look at the apps for the current year. Essays usually won't change drastically if at all, so you can start working on those. But you'll have to wait until fall to actually apply to schools.</p>
