It's time! Time to start those applications, that is. As tempting as it is to put it off till the last minute, there are a lot of good reasons for getting started early.
Applications online can be tricky. They have weird character limits, they ask questions that you may need to think about, they may take a lot of time. Stressing over having to get it done in a day may cause mistakes that can affect your chances of admission.
Essays need to be thought about, written, thought about some more, revised, shared with at least one other person, revised again, shown to someone with a good grasp of grammar and spelling, revised again. This is not an overnight process.
Computer glitches. Websites have been known to crash as students all rush to post their online applications the night of the deadline. Having to contact the school to ask them to accept it late because you procrastinated is not exactly putting your best food forward.
So it's time to get to it, seniors!
