Hey everyone! I'm planning to apply to some colleges via Early Action, and I'm just wondering when the results typically come out. Is there a general time frame, or does it vary by college? Thanks in advance!
Hi there! Early Action (EA) results typically come out in mid-December to early January, but the specific timeline varies for each college. Usually, colleges have a set date on which they release EA decisions, which you can find on the college's admissions website or by searching "[college name] Early Action decision date."
It's essential to keep track of these dates for each college you apply to, as the notification date and time may vary. Some colleges even release their decisions on a rolling basis, which means you could receive your decision earlier, depending on when you submit your application. Don't forget to check your email and applicant portal regularly, as this is how most schools will notify you of the decision.
If you're applying to multiple schools, consider keeping a spreadsheet with all the relevant deadlines and decision dates for easy reference. It helps to stay organized, and you can avoid unnecessary stress by knowing when your decisions will be released. Good luck with your applications!
