Application Deadlines for Top Universities

Yesterday I presented the application deadlines for top liberal arts colleges. Today we'll look at the deadlines for top universities including all of the Ivy League schools. Deadlines are all within a few days of each other, ranging from late December to early January. All information below is from the individual school's websites for the 2011-2012 admissions cycle.

Each of these prestigious universities posts decisions around April 1st, although some applicants may hear a decision before that time.
