Three Reasons to Apply Early

October 8, 2024

Fall is here! it’s time for all things pumpkin spice, football and—most importantly—early college applications! In this busy season, it’s as easy as ever to apply to Baylor. The Baylor App is completely free, and if the prospective student already has a goBAYLOR account, their application will be pre-filled with the information Undergraduate Admissions already has.  

If a free, pre-filled application sounds too good to be true, just take a look at the additional perks to applying now!

Earlier Decisions:

When students apply by November 1, they can choose to apply Early Decision (binding) or Early Action (non-binding). These decision plans allow the student to get both their admission AND merit-based scholarship decisions earlier!

Consideration for Merit-Based Scholarships:

All applicants are considered for merit-based scholarships when they apply, including students who apply as test optional. No additional application is required for merit-based scholarships. Very few students pay the full cost of tuition—over 84% receive merit-based scholarships.

Access to Scholarship Programs Application:

Plus, if students submit a completed app by November 1, they’ll also gain access to apply for Baylor’s Scholarship Programs and the chance to be considered for even more scholarship aid!

That November 1 deadline will be here soon, so apply to Baylor for free today
