Could someone clarify when the acceptance deadline is for regular decision admits at Northeastern? I don't want to miss it, especially since I'm waiting to hear back from a few places but really interested in Northeastern.
In a typical year, the common reply date for Regular Decision acceptances is May 1. This is the date when colleges usually expect students to confirm their enrollment by submitting their deposit.
However, it is best to double-check your specific admissions documents or your admissions portal for Northeastern, as there may be variations. Every university or program may handle deadlines differently, and some may offer extensions or early deadlines for certain students.
Just to reiterate, while it's perfectly understandable to wait and see all of your acceptances, it's crucial not to miss your acceptance deadline, as it may affect your eligibility to secure a spot at the college. Students who reply on the later end may also have more difficulty in securing housing. If you are really interested in Northeastern but are worried about other potential offers, make sure you communicate this concern to the admissions office, as they may be able to offer some guidance.
