Generally, when do you have to apply to University?

[Hierophant]

I'm going back to community college this fall, getting all the prerequisites. The problem is that I'm not sure after the next two semesters, whether or not I'll have enough time to apply successfully to university.

What is usually the case? Maybe describe your own personal experiences in this process. I'm rather ignorant of it all.

Bonus question:

-Are engineering transfer programs good? (taking the first year at a college, then transferring to uni.

All schools will list a date during the year after which they stop accepting applications for enrolling at school or registering to take courses. Contact the university's admissions office for this info.
