I'm thinking about applying to American University. Can someone share what the regular decision process is like, and when notifications might be sent out?
American University's Regular Decision deadline typically falls on January 15. Once you've submitted your application, it will be reviewed by the admissions team. They look at multiple factors, including your academic history, extracurricular activities, essays, and recommendation letters, among others.
As for the decision notifications, they're typically released on April 1. Like many universities, American University releases all their regular decision notifications at once.
Remember, after you have received a decision, if you are accepted and decide to enroll, the deadline to do so is often May 1. Be sure to double-check these dates and details on the American University's admissions website or reach out to the admissions office, as dates can change from year to year.
