March 15 and April 15 mark HECUA's program application deadlines, often schools have earlier deadlines
March and April may seem a long way off as we just begin to welcome the New Year, but once the spring term/semester begins, time goes by much too quickly. Many students take advantage of the opportunity to work on their off-campus study applications over winter break. This is encouraged as many HECUA programs (even for spring 2013) fill up quickly due to the fact that so many schools now have year-out deadlines. Be sure to check with your home institution to know the policies and deadlines for applying to an off-campus study program. Some campus-specific application deadlines are as early as January or February for the 2012-2013 academic year.
HECUA's deadlines are as follows:
| Application deadlines | Fall | January | Spring | Summer |
| International programs | March 15 | Oct. 1 | Nov. 1 | April 15 |
| Domestic (USA) programs | April 15 | Nov. 1 | Dec. 1 | April 15 |
Don't hesitate to contact HECUA directly with more questions about the online application process, or any other pre-program logistics.
HAPPY 2012!!!
