Guia
Prazos de inscrição
Normalmente, você se candidatará às universidades dos EUA durante o último ano do ensino médio—geralmente entre novembro e meados de janeiro. Já se formou? Sem problemas. Você ainda pode se candidatar como estudante em ano sabático.
A inscrição acontece no seu último ano, mas o trabalho real começa muito antes—pense em 2-3 anos antes dos prazos. Construir atividades extracurriculares sólidas, preparar-se para testes e pesquisar universidades leva tempo. Isso não é algo que você possa fazer às pressas em poucos meses.
Tipos de Prazos de Inscrição
Early Decision (ED)
ED é perfeito se você tem certeza absoluta sobre sua escola de primeira escolha. Você se inscreverá até novembro e receberá sua resposta em dezembro. Mas atenção: ED é vinculante, o que significa que você deve aceitar se for aprovado. Você pode escolher apenas uma escola para ED.
Early Action (EA)
EA é semelhante ao ED, mas sem o compromisso. Você se inscreverá por volta de novembro, receberá a resposta em dezembro ou janeiro, e ainda estará livre para comparar outras ofertas. Você pode se candidatar a EA em várias escolas.
Restrictive Early Action (REA)
REA (também chamado de Single-Choice Early Action) não é vinculante, mas tem regras. Você se inscreverá até novembro, receberá a decisão por volta de dezembro, e não será obrigado a aceitar. Mas há um detalhe: se você escolher REA, não poderá se candidatar a ED ou EA em outras escolas privadas, embora universidades públicas geralmente sejam permitidas. Verifique cuidadosamente as regras de cada escola.
Regular Decision (RD)
Esta é a forma mais comum (e sem compromisso) de se candidatar. Os prazos geralmente são em janeiro, com decisões anunciadas até março ou abril. Você terá até 1º de maio para decidir. Você pode se candidatar a RD em várias escolas. Se perder este prazo, terá que esperar um ano inteiro.
Rolling Admissions
Algumas faculdades não estabelecem prazos rígidos—elas analisam as inscrições conforme chegam. Mas fique atento: algumas têm datas prioritárias, o que significa que você terá vantagem se se candidatar cedo.
Estudantes em ano sabático
Se você perder o prazo de inscrição RD ou decidir adiar sua inscrição para um ano depois de já ter terminado o ensino médio, será considerado um estudante em ano sabático. Ser um estudante em ano sabático é muito comum e não o coloca em desvantagem. Na verdade, é uma ótima oportunidade para explorar seus interesses, buscar estágios incríveis ou simplesmente estudar mais para seus testes padronizados. Alguns estudantes tiram 2 ou até 3 anos sabáticos.
Aqui estão alguns estudantes internacionais bem-sucedidos que tiraram um ou mais anos sabáticos:
Embora tirar um ano sabático não prejudique suas chances de admissão, é importante aproveitá-lo sabiamente. No Common App, você será solicitado a escrever uma Declaração de Ano Sabático, explicando como o passou, o que aprendeu e como isso o preparou para o sucesso na universidade.
Cronograma do 9º e 10º ano
Como mencionamos anteriormente, sua preparação para a faculdade começa muuuito antes dos prazos de inscrição. Aqui está seu roteiro passo a passo a partir do 9º e 10º ano (sim, tão cedo!).
- Escolha aulas desafiadoras, mas realistas—pense em cursos Pré-IB, Pré-AP ou acelerados, se estiverem disponíveis. E sim, todas as notas contam—até mesmo aquelas do primeiro ano que você gostaria de esquecer.
- Envolva-se em clubes, atividades extracurriculares e programas de verão—mas escolha apenas aqueles que você realmente gosta! Os oficiais de admissão conseguem detectar de longe uma atividade feita "só para entrar na faculdade".
- Comece a explorar projetos pessoais—não porque você precisa de algo sofisticado para suas inscrições, mas porque descobrir o que realmente o empolga é importante.
- Pesquise faculdades cedo, conecte-se com outros estudantes internacionais que já passaram por isso e definitivamente use o Borderless.
Cronograma do 11º ano
No 11º ano, as coisas ficam sérias—mas você consegue:
- Esforce-se academicamente—as universidades adoram ver notas fortes especialmente neste ano. Nada de relaxar!
- Busque papéis de liderança em seus clubes, times esportivos ou grupos de voluntariado. Continue buscando atividades que realmente o empolgam e causam impacto.
- Pensando em lançar ou liderar seu projeto de paixão? Agora é o momento perfeito.
- Prepare-se e faça testes padronizados: SAT ou ACT. Se o inglês não for sua primeira língua, adicione TOEFL ou IELTS à sua lista.
- Explore universidades virtualmente ou visite-as pessoalmente durante eventos de portas abertas.
- Se sua escola tiver um, agende uma reunião individual com seu conselheiro universitário para obter conselhos personalizados, ou considere a mentoria do Borderless.
- Continue pesquisando universidades e bolsas de estudo. Seu futuro eu agradecerá seriamente.
- No final do 11º ano, solicite suas cartas de recomendação—seus professores apreciarão o aviso antecipado.
- Comece a fazer um brainstorm de ideias para sua Declaração Pessoal do Common App. Sim, já!
Cronograma do 12º ano
12º ano—é hora de agir:
- As inscrições geralmente abrem por volta de agosto—não procrastine, comece cedo!
- Se possível, faça cursos mais desafiadores no primeiro semestre. Lembre-se, as universidades tomam decisões antes de ver suas notas finais do 12º ano.
- Garanta suas cartas de recomendação, históricos escolares e todos os outros documentos necessários.
- Dedique tempo de qualidade para refinar sua declaração pessoal e redações suplementares. Apressar esta parte é um grande erro.
- Complete todas as inscrições através do Common App ou outras plataformas relevantes.
- Candidatando-se a Early Decision ou Early Action? Os prazos geralmente caem entre 15 de outubro e 15 de novembro. Regular Decision geralmente é devido em janeiro.
- Não se esqueça do formulário de Auxílio Financeiro—sério, não esqueça.
- Prepare-se minuciosamente e com confiança para suas entrevistas universitárias.
- Final de março ou início de abril significa cartas de aceitação! Escolha cuidadosamente—o ajuste certo é importante para seus objetivos e seu orçamento.

Wellesley CollegeAs an international student needing a full ride, Borderless felt like a safe space for me. It made the whole admissions process so much clearer and less overwhelming, with resources that were actually easy to understand and apply.

Vanderbilt University$99k/yr scholarship
Oberlin College$90k/yr scholarshipBorderless helped me a lot during this process, especially when writing my personal statement - the specific feedback and details I got back were spot on. My PIQs & all my supplementals were also reviewed by Borderless app and it gave specific feedback to improve them. I also used the Brainstorming tool (amazing! It really sounded like a real counselor) for most of my apps. The activities list review tool was also great, it helped me reorganize the order and small details that I didn't detect before. Thank you for building this incredible app!
Smith College
Brandeis University
University of ChicagoI've read some interviews and articles by students getting scholarships in different universities and this has really inspired me through different stages in my journey! I also used the essays editor and evaluator, which was really super helpful when it comes to evaluating many essays while applying and at least get a sense of how good it is without having to ask my friends to read a hundred essays for me! I also appreciated that it was almost completely free and I didn't have to pay anything, and I know how this can be helpful for students who can't afford to pay for advisors. Thank you so much!!

NYU Abu DhabiI used the thirty min call with Veronica twice and used the essay helper many times. The calls really helped me because i did one during brainstorming and one when i thought i already had my final draft and the first one helped me eliminate some bad ideas and second one helped me reframe my final version to be much more connected to my culture. Essay helper was absolutely amazing, and it helped me with focus and especially for the additional NYU essay as i was confused with what exactly to write within such a limited wordcount.

NYU ShanghaiI have been reading the stories since I was in 9th grade, and it helped me kind of plan out my extracurriculars. But the thing that helped me the most was the Borderless App's review and rating mechanisms. It helped me refine my essays, and I believe that's what got me in

Minerva University
Bowdoin College$97k/yr scholarshipBoth the Borderless app and Instagram account have been a huge help in my application process. As a low-income international student, I found community in the Instagram account, watching content that helped me and showed me I am not alone. The app helped me organise my college list, tracking which applications were done or what was left to do. And the writing assistance was one of my favourite tools. From brainstorming to revision, absolutely helpful.
Georgia TechFirst Borderless expanded my college options through the college list service. With the stories, I was inspired to apply to some colleges and understand their admissions. With the ECs reviewer, it provided me with the chance to theme my profile to actually start crafting my profile. Thanks!
University of Washington
UW-MadisonBorderless was meaningful to me and to my process of learning and preparing to applications. I used every tool to review my essays and extracurricular activities and read many stories to learn about the profile of the approved students at the university I wanted to apply. I had mentorship to help me, but to people who can't afford or weren't approved at any mentorship, I believe Borderless is a powerful app.
Case Western ReserveI mostly watched the Instagram reels for advice and as I applied everywhere on my own without any agent I must admit those were REALLY helpful. Especially for the ECA recommendations — we don't really have any fancy clubs in our school or any high research opportunities. All of my ECAs were self-initiated, and Veronica's advice really helped me describe the impact I made through them in all my applications. I was thrilled to be accepted by CWRU since the USA admission process is 10 times more brutal than the Canadian one.

Middlebury CollegeBorderless was my savior during the application process. I mostly used the "extracurricular" and "essay" section to get feedback about what I was writing about. Borderless also made it easy to comprehend how to approach each supplemental question depending on the college/university. Finally, I would say that reading stories from different backgrounds was the starting point of motivation.

Pace University$20k/yr scholarship
DePaul UniversityThe Borderless App has been helpful a lot in this college application season - as it is my first time, and I didn't have any mentors or people who could check my essays - it helped me survive. Especially the brainstorming with Borderless made me feel like i am less dumb and actually made my ideas more structured to put the all in one essay and convey the message I want. I am REALLY thankful to Borderless, I don't know what I would do without it.

The essay brainstorming tools and college list evaluations gave me much-needed clarity. I also spent a lot of time reading Borderless Stories and even reached out to past participants to get "insider" insights on specific universities, which helped me feel more connected to the community.

Purdue UniversityI got into Purdue and a chunk of my acceptance goes to Borderless. I believe an application is nothing without essays and Borderless quite literally saved me with last minute reviews. Purdue was the first university I was going to writing supplementals for, and I genuinely had no idea how to begin, what to write, and if what I was writing was meaningful at all. That's where Borderless came in!! Its initial roadmap helped me start, and that framework helped me get my thoughts in order. Even after finishing my essays, Borderless AI caught many shortcomings within my essays, even minute ones, which I think have played a huge role in my acceptance to Purdue West Lafayette, and that too in one of the most competitive majors, Computer Science.

Union College$66k/yr scholarshipIt really helped me to structure my essays — I crafted most of my essays using Borderless, as I didn't use a college counseling service neither at my school nor outside counseling. For someone who had no confidence with writing and no knowledge about where to start, this tool was more than helpful. I read stories about many colleges and started making my dream school lists out of it. I am hopeful to be able to make a positive impact on other fellow international students on this platform just as I was given so much from the past applicants. Thank you so much.
Pace University$47k/yr scholarshipBorderless really helped me through this whole journey. I had a lot of activities, but was unsure how to describe or order them. Borderless made that process so much clearer and easier. It also helped me refine my essay by fixing the grammatical issues and giving me writing advice, which made a big difference in my essay.
Adelphi UniversityI've been reading Borderless's stories for years now, but the most useful tool would definitely have to be the Activity Description Tool. It was honestly so helpful, from organizing them and telling me how to utilize the character count. Something I don't see mentioned much about it is how it helps spotting mistakes. I wrote 1 hour instead of 10 hours and it helped me catch that, or I would have totally been screwed since it was a really unique and niche activity of mine.
