Is it foolish to expect significant scholarship money if applying after October 31st?

I just don't think I'm going to have all my materials ready the way I want them to be to apply by the end of October (which I understand is common). My goal, ultimately, is to get a full-ride somewhere--but are these sorts of scholarships even still given out "later" in the cycle? Hoping so. I honestly think I might have to wait until November or December.

Same here. It's my final semester and I'm trying to finish strong and also improve my resume as an undergrad

I’m in the same boat wondering the same thing and very intrigued to see what others may reply back on this!

Depending on the schools you are applying to, you are still considered early decision even in December! From what I know, (as someone who is applying late Nov. early Dec.) you should be fine for scholarships during this time! I honestly think it just depends on the school.

Great question, wondering same thing. I am 39 years old with no income, so I have to rely on full scholarships to get in.
