As a high school junior, I'm curious about the Early Decision II timeline. When do colleges typically release decisions, and is this timing consistent across most schools? Any insights would really help as I'm planning my application strategy.
Generally, the timeline for Early Decision II (ED II) outcomes varies based on the specific institution you've applied to, but most students receive their decisions by mid to late February. As for your application submission, ED II deadlines typically fall around January 1st, although some schools may have slightly earlier or later deadlines, usually within the first two weeks in January.
Keep in mind that this timeline may be slightly different for each college, so it's important to research the specific schools you're interested in for the most accurate information. Most colleges provide specific decision release dates on their admissions websites or in the application materials.
Best of luck as you map out your application strategy!
