Hello all- When is the best time to get the finance in place, before the cut off - deadline for October courses?

Hey!
Ideally, you'll want to have your financial aid, scholarships, and any other funding sorted out as early as possible to avoid any last-minute stress. The specific deadline for getting your finances in order will depend on your school and the specific courses you're taking. Some schools may have a deadline several weeks or even months before the start of the semester, while others may allow you to make payments up until the first day of classes.

That being said, it's generally a good idea to aim to have your finances in place at least a few weeks before the start of the semester. This will give you time to make any necessary adjustments, gather any additional documentation, or seek out alternative sources of funding if needed. If you're not sure when the deadline is for your specific program, I would recommend reaching out to your school's financial aid office or admissions office. They should be able to provide you with more information on the specific timeline and requirements for getting your finances in order. I hope this helps, and best of luck with your studies!
