Oh, Canada! The Definitive List of Canadian University Application Deadlines

Posted on May 3, 2018 by Craig

Looking to go to college north of the border? First, don’t call it college; call it university. Second, be prepared to work with an entirely different set of application deadlines than you have when applying to American colleges. Third, realize that your citizenship will likely influence what your deadline for applying will be. Fourth, it’s always a better idea to get the application completed and ready for review ASAP; don’t wait for the deadline. Fifth, the below chart is updated in early 2019 for students aiming for a September 2019 start date. Sixth, realize that certain niche programs at universities listed below may have other deadlines than those listed; make sure to double check with the school/program before moving forward. Seventh, good luck as you set your sights on studying in Canada!
