Program/University Deadlines
Deadlines and selection criteria vary program by program.

Therefore, students should apply to their program or host institution when their respective applications open. This may be as early as January 1 of the previous academic year. Regardless of your program/university’s deadline, OCS strongly encourages students to apply no later than March 1 (for fall/year away) and September 15 (for spring away).
