Applying to private and out-of-state colleges and universities
These schools vary in their application procedures and deadlines. Please visit the college website for further information. Most private schools require letters of recommendation and other forms to be completed by teachers and/or counselors. Please organize your paperwork and give your teacher or counselor a minimum of 2 work weeks to complete them. If you ask less than 2 weeks in advance, you are not guaranteed to get a letter of recommendation. Most private schools also require essays or personal statements. The questions vary from school to school, but the strategies for the UC Personal Statement listed below will help you compose your private school essays as well.
