The University of Akron operates on a rolling admissions basis for most undergraduate programs, allowing applications year-round. However, priority deadlines are recommended for financial aid and scholarship consideration: Fall semester—July 1, Spring semester—December 1, and Summer semester—April 1.
Graduate programs may have specific deadlines, varying by department. For example, some programs require applications by March 1 for Fall intake. International students should apply at least three months prior to the semester start to accommodate visa processing. Always verify deadlines on the university’s official website or by contacting the admissions office directly, as dates may shift annually.
