Old Dominion University (ODU) operates on a rolling admissions basis for most programs, but specific deadlines vary by term and student type. Fall semester priority deadlines are typically February 1 for freshmen and March 1 for transfers. Spring semester deadlines are usually November 1. Graduate programs may have earlier or program-specific deadlines.
Applications are accepted year-round, but meeting priority deadlines ensures consideration for scholarships and financial aid. International students should apply at least three months before the term starts to allow for visa processing. Check ODU’s official website or contact the admissions office for exact dates, as they may change annually.
