Admission and Enrollment Deadlines

Students can choose from two semesters in our undergraduate college to join Rosemont. The Fall semester (August) is the largest enrollment time, but we also welcome new students to join us in January for the Spring semester.
- Start in Fall (August): While Rosemont offers rolling admissions, the sooner you complete your application*, the sooner you'll hear if you were admitted. Suggested deadlines:
  - Apply by:
    - November 15: receive your admission decision before Thanksgiving break.
    - December 15: receive your admission decision before the winter break.
    - February 1: February 1 is a common deadline for many colleges, so completing your Rosemont application at this time will allow you to consider Rosemont's admission decision among others you may receive.
- Start in Spring (January): Classes typically begin the second week of January. Applications must be completed 3 weeks prior to the beginning of class, however it is encouraged that you apply as soon as possible to secure your spot.
Honors Program: Students applying to the Honors Program should submit their application as soon as possible to secure a spot, but no later than March 1, 2024.
Make it official: Students accepted for admission are encouraged to submit an enrollment deposit to reserve a spot in the Fall 2024 entering class by May 1, 2024.
