Before Submitting
Before you submit your application, be aware of the following:
- You cannot make any changes once you submit your application.
- Review and confirm the colleges and application terms to ensure accuracy.
- Do not wait until the last minute. You can submit your application up until 11:59 PM PT on the deadline date; however, ensure you allow for time to complete the required payment section. You must click Submit and complete the final payment information before the deadline in order to guarantee your submission is accepted. Additionally, be aware that during our busiest times you may experience page loading delays, and these may occur outside of customer service's hours of operation. We cannot grant deadline extensions if you miss your deadline; contact your colleges directly for more information.

When you are ready to submit, click the Submit Colleges link in the What's Next section of the application, or click the My Colleges button in the top right corner of the dashboard. Select the colleges you want to submit and click Continue.
Confirm your college selections, and click Submit.
After Submitting
You'll receive a confirmation email acknowledging that your application was submitted. Note that submitting does not mean your application is being reviewed by your colleges. Be sure to monitor your status on the CAS Status section at the top of the application dashboard.
Completing Your CCCStart Application
In general, an application is complete when:
- You submitted your application and received an email confirming it was successfully submitted.
- Your application College Status is "Complete."
Note that your selected colleges may have specific requirements for completion (i.e., supplemental applications, official transcripts, document uploads, etc.). We recommend contacting your colleges directly to ensure you are meeting all requirements. Failure to submit all required materials may jeopardize your eligibility for admission consideration. Review each college's details to ensure you are meeting all requirements.
