It might seem like all the deadlines to apply to a top university in the United States are clustered at the beginning of February, but fortunately, it’s not too late to get in an application.

Many leading colleges you may not have heard of continue to accept applications on a rolling basis, and others set their deadlines between March and September 2016.

Of the 147 US universities in the Times Higher Education World University Rankings 2016, here is a selection of 10 universities that you can still apply to for entry in autumn 2016.

While not a complete list of all world-ranked universities still open for applications, all these institutions are counted among the 600 best universities in the world.

The choices below are based all over the US, including Louisiana and Texas in the South, Iowa in the Midwest, and New Jersey on the East Coast. Whatever environment you are looking for, the chance to make it happen for the upcoming year is still high.

Both the University of Arizona make the top 200 of the World University Rankings, so it is well worth getting your applications in sooner rather than later for the best chance of securing a place.

For more specific information about the application, check out the university profiles pages and the university websites.
