Whether you got a late start or were unhappy with the admissions decisions you received, you will be happy to know that over 750 colleges may still be accepting applications.
The colleges listed below are ones that accept the Common App until or after April 1. Keep in mind that most of these institutions admit students on a rolling basis, and once their incoming class is filled, they stop accepting applications, so double-check with the university that they indeed have openings before submitting your application.
On the other hand, many colleges continue to accept applications after their posted deadlines when they have space available. A list of those institutions is available here after May 1.
