Rolling Admissions in US Universities.

      Rolling Admissios:

While many schools have a hard deadline for applications (meaning they won't accept applications received after the deadline), colleges with rolling admissions accept applications until they've filled all the spots. The Rolling admission policy means that there is no application deadline; admission is offered on an ongoing basis to qualified students until the class is filled.
 

Rolling admissions in the college admissions process

As each application comes in, it's reviewed. Decisions are then made on a case-by-case basis and you'll usually hear back within 3-8 weeks. There are few schools that accept applications under a rolling admission policy and then send out decisions all at once. If they didn’t find required number of suitable profiles they are looking for, they will continue with admissions. If they have not issued admissions to targeted number of incoming students, they will continue accepting application after deadlines (some rolling admission schools have deadlines for international students). In such cases if you are late in submitting application, you will get second chance to get in your application.
