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 you 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, apply away! Good luck.
