Some programs have rolling access, meaning you can apply any time during the year. These programs usually have a deadline of six months to nine months before the start of the program. Other programs have only one deadline for all applicants and will not accept applications after this date has passed.<\/p><p>For international students who need an F-1 or J-1 visa, it&#8217;s important to note that some schools have earlier deadlines than others (usually in April). Check out Northwestern&#8217;s Office of International Students &amp; Scholars website for more information about applying from abroad!<\/p><h4><span style=\"color: #4e2a84;\">You must apply to each program separately, but you can do this from one application.<\/span><\/h4><p>You can apply for multiple programs at once.
