Rolling or Extended Deadlines

If your program offers rolling admission or has an extended deadline, applications are reviewed as they are received and on a space-available basis. We recommend you complete your application as soon as possible as rolling programs or those with extended deadlines can close earlier, without warning, if full capacity has been met. Programs with rolling admission officially close their Summer applications on June 1 and Fall applications on July 1.

International Applicant Deadlines

In order to provide enough time for visa processing, applicants who will require a student visa to attend Teachers College must submit their application by the deadlines below. Please note that many programs accepting applications for Summer/Fall have Priority or Final application deadlines that precede these dates. If your program has an earlier deadline than what is listed below, you must abide by the program deadline.
