National College Decision Day
Make your college decision by May 1. If you’re choosing between schools, be sure to communicate clearly with admissions offices. Accepting multiple offers is considered unethical. If your plans change after submitting a deposit, notify the college—even though deposits are often non-refundable.

Trade and Technical Schools
For students pursuing trade or technical programs, be aware of early enrollment deadlines. Many programs require a deposit, and tuition may be due shortly after registration—especially if your program begins in the summer. Reach out to your school’s financial aid office with any questions about registration or fees.
