Converting In-Progress Applications to Completed Submissions

As we are passionate about helping you and your team achieve your goals, we’d love to help you convert as many of your in-progress submissions to fully submitted between now and your upcoming deadline. 

 

To that effort, we recommend creating a strategic plan to remind your applicants of the approaching deadline and communicate the average time frame for preparing application materials and filling out your application. 

 

DEADLINE CHECKLIST                                                  
 

 Message your in-progress applicants to remind them of the approaching deadline, communicating the average time frame to prepare application materials and complete your application questions.

 

 Refresh yourself on how to bypass the deadline for individual applicants and/or change the deadline for certain programs. 

 

 Edit your Landing Page and/or Guidelines to highlight your deadline. This would be a great time to use our Deadline Warning formatting feature, which turns the text orange!

 

 Make a social media post (or a few!) reminding your followers of the upcoming deadline. 
 

 Utilize incentive coupons to waive (or discount) the application fee. Email your Account Relations Specialist at accountrelations@getacceptd.com to request these. We only charge you for the codes that are redeemed, so there is no harm in stocking up on a few just in case!

 

 Remind applicants who reach out about financial aid fee waivers that our Support Team needs 24-48 hours to process their request. Please encourage applicants to submit their request as soon as possible so the fee waiver does not delay their submission beyond your deadline.
