Please keep in mind these important dates when applying:
November 16— Early Decision I deadline
If Bryant is your first-choice university we encourage you to apply Early Decision. In addition to receiving admission notification by December 16, students that filed an estimated financial aid form will receive scholarship notification and an estimated financial aid package.
By applying Early Decision, you agree that, if admitted, you will withdraw all other college applications and enroll at Bryant University. A commitment deposit is due by January 8, 2010.
December 1 - Early Action deadline
If Bryant is one of your top choices we encourage you to apply Early Action. In addition to receiving admission notification mid-January, students will receive scholarship notification along with their admission decision.
Early action is non-binding, which means you get early notification, but your commitment deposit is not due until May 1, 2010.
