Summary of Application Experience
I submitted my primary on July 26th, verified in early September, completed secondaries in mid-October, applied to a few CA state schools on a whim on November 1st (turned out to be a waste of time and money, oh well). I like to think that if I'd applied earlier I would have had more interviews. But...I'm thrilled about UMass and I think that no matter what I would have ended up there, so I'm happy!
