First-Year Student Application Deadlines | Springfield College

Springfield College accepts applications on a rolling admissions basis for all programs. While our physical therapy and physician assistant programs allow for rolling admissions applicants, there are specific deadlines by which candidates must submit their application.

Students are encouraged to submit their $300 nonrefundable enrollment deposit by May 1.
