Central Michigan University (CMU) operates on a rolling admissions basis for most undergraduate programs, allowing applications year-round. However, priority deadlines are recommended for financial aid and housing considerations. The fall semester priority deadline is typically August 1, while the winter semester deadline is December 1.
Graduate programs have varying deadlines, often set by individual departments. For example, many programs have fall deadlines between February and April. Prospective students should check specific program requirements on CMU’s official website or contact the admissions office for precise dates, as deadlines may differ for international students or specialized programs.
