What are some universities in the US with rolling admissions?

I'm trying to figure out which universities in the US offer rolling admissions. I want to have a few options as backups where I can apply really late if needed. Can anyone recommend some schools known for their rolling admissions?

Sure, a good number of universities in the U.S. operate on a rolling admissions policy. Here are a few to get you started:

1. University of Alabama: Known for its strong engineering and business programs, University of Alabama starts their rolling admissions in July before the academic year and continues to accept applications until spaces are filled.

2. Penn State University: Noted for its robust programs in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM), and Business, Penn State opens their applications in August and reviews them in the order they are received until the incoming class is filled.

3. University of Tulsa: This private institution, recognized for its energy management and petroleum engineering programs, makes admission decisions on a rolling basis.

4. Michigan State University: Known for supply chain management and communications programs, Michigan State starts accepting applications at the beginning of August until class capacity is filled.

5. Purdue University Fort Wayne: With standout programs in music and visual communication and design, Purdue Fort Wayne operates on rolling admissions, but does have priority deadlines for scholarship consideration.

6. University of Pittsburgh: Known for its programs in Health and Biological Sciences, they are also on rolling admissions, but it's best to apply as early as possible as certain programs fill up quickly.

Remember that while applying under rolling admissions can offer flexibility, it's still best to apply as early as possible. Some programs at these schools may fill up quickly, limiting your options the longer you wait.
