Hello,

I have seen two sides to the required time to have prerequisites completed by:

-Some say you need to have all prereq's done before you apply and that preference is given to those who do this.

-Some say it does not matter at all, as long as you have them all in by the time you are supposed to matriculate (you will be given a conditional acceptance to have a C or B or better in these classes).

Which is correct? Or does it vary by school?

All i have left on my Prereq's is another English class...

Thank you!

It varies by school. Historically, for the vast majority, #2 has been correct, but there are a handful of exceptions. Some require all prerequisites before applying and some give you until January of the application year. I recall one that says you can have no more than 1-2 uncompleted. So keep an eye on the websites of schools you plan to target.
