Hey folks! I applied to a few tech-focused schools this year. Is there a general time frame for when tech schools release their results? Any insight would be appreciated!
Hello! While there isn't a strict timeline for when all tech-focused schools release their admissions decisions, most schools will generally release decisions around the same period, usually between mid-March and early April for the Regular Decision applicants. This time window is not exclusive to tech schools but applies to many higher-education institutions in the United States.
However, the specific release dates can vary between schools. Here are some examples of estimations based on the past few years:
- MIT: generally announces decisions on March 14th (3/14, for Pi Day!)
- Caltech: usually in mid-March
- Georgia Tech: results typically come out in mid-March (and early March for Georgia residents)
- Carnegie Mellon University: decisions are typically released by April 1st
These dates might change slightly from year to year, so it's a good idea to head to each institution's admissions page or follow their social media channels to stay updated on the latest news. Additionally, if you applied through Early Action or Early Decision deadlines, those decisions typically are released between mid-December and February.
Good luck with your applications and fingers crossed for you!
