Episode 07: What is YOUR DICAS Deadline?

IN THIS EPISODE

The Application deadlines for the Fall and Spring Match are always set ahead of time: Sept 25 for Fall Match, and February 15 for Spring Match. When you’re working on your application, that deadline can feel pretty daunting as it gets closer. My suggestion is that you actually set your OWN application deadline, and make it even earlier.

In this episode, we’re talking about why setting your own deadline makes sense, even thought that means shortening even by just a day or two, the amount of time you have to work on your application. Here are some important things we’ll discuss:

  1. Making sure you know what else is going on around the same time as the application deadline.

  2. What absolutely must be complete for you to be able to hit submit – and what you actually don’t need to wait for.

  3. How to meet your own deadline and rest easy that your DICAS application is on its way.

YOUR ACTION STEP

Set a reminder in your phone or write into your calendar that your own application deadline is now 2 days ahead! Plan to get everything completed by then. Know that when that day comes around, you will be ready to hit submit – or still have a bit of a buffer to make up time if you really do need it.
