I'm trying to organize my college applications, but I'm getting overwhelmed with all the dates. When do regular decision notifications typically get released for colleges like Syracuse, Maryland, or Emory? Also, are there any deadlines I should be aware of?
Regular decision deadlines for college applications tend to vary from institution to institution, but most fall between January 1st and January 15th. Here's the information for the three schools you've mentioned:
- For Syracuse University, the regular decision application deadline is February 15th and students typically get their decisions by late March.
- For the University of Maryland, the regular decision deadline is January 20th and decisions are generally released by April 1st.
- Emory University has a regular decision deadline of January 1st and releases decisions on April 1.
Do note, that these timelines are typical but could change slightly each year. Hence, it's always a good idea to directly check each university's admissions website for the most up-to-date information. As part of your organization process, you might want to create a spreadsheet listing all your target schools, their application deadlines, and planned decision release dates. Additionally, remember to account for financial aid application deadlines, which might be different from admission application deadlines.
Good luck with your applications! It's a lot to manage, but staying organized, as you're already doing, will keep this process manageable.
