It's almost Application Time!

Hey Everyone! I hope you are enjoying the summer. It’s hard to believe the semester is just around the corner. Signs are already on campus for football games and campus entertainment, the university is preparing for the students to return and current students are itching to return to Oxford. Here in admission, we’re already getting calls and emails from students ready to apply to the university!

The number one question I have been getting from students is where should I be at this point in the application process? The answer, not everyone is at the same pace, but the fact that you are thinking about the process means you are where you need to be.

Some students will be ready to apply when the Miami University application is available on August 1 (www.muohio.edu/apply). Others are still shortening their long list of schools to a short list. Keep in mind that you once August hits you can submit your application as soon as you’re ready, but you can always take the time you need to ensure you have filled out the application to your satisfaction as long as we have it by our decision deadlines.

As you begin to take a look at applying, here are a few things to keep in mind:

1. Do not rush your application just to have it done. This process allows you to let the college know the student they are admitting. Take your time to really allow the institution to get to know you as a person.

2. Map out the timing of filling out the application. Chances are you about to get extremely busy when the school year starts, so keeping yourself on a schedule will keep you on track.

3. Ask questions. This is a big decision you are making and you want all the information. Call us at 513-529-2531 or email us at admission@muohio.edu. We are always more than happy to answer any questions that you may have.

Best of luck to you as you begin application season!
