Aggies Elevated uses a cohort model, where groups of students are admitted together and start the program at the same time. Applications are open October through December each year. This follows typical university application/admissions timelines and allows for all necessary steps to be completed for a student to start the program the next fall.
Interested students should plan to apply the Fall before they hope to start the program. For example, if a student will be exiting post-high in 2026, they should begin their application Fall of 2025.
