I'm thinking about Union College for next year and trying to plan. Does anyone know when their regular decision deadline is? It would help me a lot in organizing my application timeline.
Union College's Regular Decision applications are typically due by January 15th. Keep in mind that application deadlines can change from year to year, so it's always a good idea to confirm the deadline from Union College's official website.
In terms of the application materials, Union College uses both the Common Application and Coalition Application. Here is a quick overview of the required documents:
- A completed Common Application or Coalition Application.
- An official high school transcript sent directly from your guidance or college counselor.
- Letter of recommendation from your guidance counselor.
- Teacher recommendation(s).
- Union College writing supplement.
- Financial aid forms (if applicable)
- Standardized Testing (optional, except for homeschooled students)
Please note, that as of the 2024-2025 application cycle, Union College has returned to a test-optional policy. This means submitting SAT or ACT scores is optional and up to you to decide whether or not your scores accurately represent your academic abilities.
Lastly, remember to keep an eye on your email after you apply — Union College may send an email with instructions on how to create an online portal account to check your application status.
The best advice in this process is to manage your time and try to get ahead of these application needs, so you're not scrambling last minute. Best of luck with your application!
