Application Deadline

Applicants to Medill’s Integrating Marketing Communications Full-time Program can choose to apply by one of three deadlines for the 2024-2025 school year, listed in the table below. The application review process is the same for all three Rounds, and all admitted students will be considered for merit-based scholarships regardless of the round they choose.

Please apply in the round that fits your schedule. The same application review process is applied during each round, and all admitted students will be considered for merit-based scholarships regardless of the Round they choose to apply.

Each deadline has a corresponding decision notification date. Decisions are not released on a rolling basis; instead, applicants who have submitted completed applications by the deadline can expect a decision by the notification date above. A completed application means that all transcripts, test scores, letters of recommendation and required essays have been received by our office. Applicants can view whether their application is complete by checking their application portal. Applications that are submitted but missing required documents, such as a letter of recommendation, will not be reviewed until all materials have been received. As a result, applications that are incomplete are not guaranteed a decision by their corresponding notification date.
