I'm thinking about applying to some Ivy League schools but I'm a bit confused about their regular decision dates. Does anyone know if they all have the same deadlines or are they different?
Each Ivy League school indeed has its unique regular decision deadlines and notification dates. Here are the details for each one during the 2024-2025 application cycle:
- Brown University: The application deadline is January 5 and decisions are released by late March.
- Columbia University: The application deadline is January 1, with regular decisions typically announced in late March.
- Dartmouth College: Their regular decision deadline is January 5, with decisions being sent out around late March.
- Harvard University: Has a January 1 deadline for regular decision, and decisions are sent out in late March.
- Princeton University: Their application deadline falls on January 1, and they usually release their decisions by late March.
- University of Pennsylvania: The regular decision deadline is January 5 and decisions generally come out in late March.
- Yale University: Has a January 2 deadline for regular decision applications. Decision emails are sent out in mid-April.
That said, it's always good to check the exact dates on each college's admission website, as these dates can sometimes change. Good luck with your applications!
