Application deadlines and start dates

Upcoming cycles University of Mobile publishes. A date without a year on the school's page is noted rather than guessed.

Spring (January) cohortRolling admissionThe program page says 'Applications will be taken until class is filled.' It gives no application opening date or deadline. The university-wide 2026-2027 post-traditional tuition sheet lists Spring Term I, 2027 as Jan. 11 – May 6. That date is a general university term, not a confirmed ABSN start date.

ABSNcheck summarizes requirements that schools publish on their own websites, with a link to each source and the date we last verified it. Schools change requirements, sometimes contradict themselves, and make individual decisions. Results show whether you meet published minimums; they are not an admission decision or a guarantee, and are not official advice from any school. Always confirm requirements with each program before you apply or enroll in a course.
