Explanation:

Some colleges and universities have a longer period of time during which you can submit your application, almost at any time of the year.

It is not really at any time, but there is broader interval of dates to submit your application.

The period lasts about 9 months, fall through spring, provided there are free spaces.

This eliminates the pressures of the deadlines but yet you must be aware that the places may be filled because the admission committes make their decisions as the applicatons are received, usually taking just some weeks to notify the applicants.

Just a number of colleges use rolling admissions, so you need to verify in the internet which they are, and their specific policies.
