原文地址：制定你的美国大学申请时间表，事半功倍作者：Joyce
不管你什么时候开始思考“准备去上大学”这个问题,你都可以参照以下两款大学申请时间表。一个是给高二学生准备的,一个是为高三学生准备的。也许你们中间有些人获取了不少关于进入大学的信息,不过你们多数人没有一份相对正式的申请计划以选择大学。
No matter when you start thinking about where you are going to college, you can jump right into the college selection process by looking at the following two college application calendars.  One is for Senior 2 and the other for Senior 3.  Most of you will not have a formal program at school for choosing a college, even though you will have a lot of information about exams for getting into college.
刚升入高三的同学们,记住,抓紧时间准备申请大学吧,大学正向你们敞开怀抱。少部分大学的申请截止日期是3月1号,或许你已经赶不上给你心仪院校寄申请书或者论文,尤其是在考试频繁的间隙。不过不要太沮丧哈，依旧有超过2600所大学等待你的选择,你一定会在美国找到一个更好的地方钻研学业。
For those of you who are starting senior 3, keep in mind that it’s never too late to start the U.S. college application  process. Some colleges accept students all through.Senior 3. A few universities have application deadlines as late as March 1st of Senior 3.   If you’ve missed some of the testing and application deadlines for a college where you wanted to apply and you find yourself short on time to write the application and essay for a particular college, remember there are 2,600 colleges and universities and it’s never too late to get into a strong college somewhere in the United States.
如果你现在是高一或者高二,那么你现在的课程选择和所在年级都会影响你进入美国大学的时间表,准备好了吗?我们来看看一般情况下的时间表安排。
For those of you who are starting to think about college in the US while you are in Senior 1 or Senior 2, it is important for you to know that your curriculum choices and grades in a rigorous curriculum will count the most for getting into college.
