I've applied to the University of Minnesota via regular decision. For those who have gone through this, how long did it take for your acceptance notifications to come through?
The University of Minnesota operates on a rolling admissions basis, meaning they evaluate applications as they come in, and they don't have a strict timeline to send out all their decisions at once. However, most regular decision applicants can expect to hear back from the university approximately two to three months after submitting their application.
The University of Minnesota's regular decision deadline is generally around January 1. If you submitted your application close to this deadline, you can likely expect a decision by late March or early April. However, this timeline is not set in stone and can vary year by year or even applicant by applicant, so it might be a good idea to keep an eye on your email and the applicant portal for any updates or changes.
It's also important to remember that the earlier you submit your application, the sooner you'll likely receive a decision. So, if you applied significantly before the deadline, there's a good chance you could hear back earlier. Just keep in mind that this is only an estimation and not a guaranteed timeline.
It's understandable to feel impatient during this time but try to keep occupied and not let the waiting period cause too much stress. Good luck!
