When is the deadline for regular decision 2025 applications?

I'm trying to organize my college applications, and I'm a bit confused about when the regular decision deadlines are for 2025. Does anyone have a list or some info on specific schools' deadlines?

The regular decision deadlines for colleges vary, but most of them fall within the first two weeks of January. Because each college may have a slightly different deadline, you must check each school's policy. Here's a mid-range of those timelines:

1. January 1: A good number of schools, especially those that are highly selective, have their regular decision deadline on the first day of the New Year. Some of these include Columbia University and Harvard University.

2. January 2: Schools like Dartmouth College, Yale University, and Johns Hopkins University have their deadline right after New Year's Day.

3. January 3-15: Schools may have their deadlines anywhere within this timeframe. For example, Brown University's regular decision deadline is January 3, while Stanford University's is January 5.

Remember, this is not an exhaustive list and dates can sometimes change from year to year. There are also schools with deadlines a little later on, like the University of Michigan, which has a deadline of February 1, and schools with rolling admissions, where you can sometimes apply all the way through the summer, as long as there is still space in the class.

Always double-check the specific deadlines and admissions policies directly on each college's admissions website. You can usually find this information within their "Apply" or "Admission Requirements" sections. Good luck with your apps!
