When do regular decision college releases happen?

I'm trying to keep track of when colleges release their regular decision results. Is there a general release time or date that I should be aware of, or does it vary greatly between schools?

Most colleges release their regular decision results between mid-March and early April. However, this can vary significantly from school to school, and some colleges might release their decisions intermittently during this window, while others release all decisions on a specific date. Usually, colleges will notify applicants via email when decision results are available, typically directing them to check their application portal for the decision letter.

For example, Ivy League universities have historically released their decisions on "Ivy Day," the last Thursday of March. However, keep an eye on the specific colleges you've applied to for notifications regarding decision releases. Following the admissions offices' social media or periodically checking their online admission FAQs for this information are good strategies too.

In the midst of waiting, it's crucial to stay patient and be sure to keep up with your current academic commitments – the journey isn’t over until you’ve made your final decision and committed to a school! Looking too far into the future can distract you from current responsibilities that are just as important. So, while you should certainly be aware of when decisions might arrive, try not to let the anticipation consume your everyday activities. Good luck!
