When are Ivy League Early Decision notifications released?

Hi everyone, I plan to apply to a few Ivy League colleges through early decision. I was wondering if anyone knows when the early decision notification dates usually are? I'd like to have an idea of when I should expect to hear back. Thanks!

Hello! Early Decision and Early Action notifications for Ivy League schools generally come out in mid-December. While the exact date can vary slightly from year to year, most schools release their decisions within a few days of each other. To give you an idea, here are the usual notification dates for Ivy League schools:

1. Brown University: December 15

2. Columbia University: December 15

3. Cornell University: December 15

4. Dartmouth College: December 15

5. Harvard University: December 15 Note that Princeton offers Single-Choice Early Action, not Early Decision)

6. University of Pennsylvania: December 15

7. Princeton University: December 15 (Note that Princeton offers Single-Choice Early Action, not Early Decision)

8. Yale University: December 15 (Yale also offers Single-Choice Early Action, not Early Decision)

Keep in mind that these dates are approximate and could change, so it's a good idea to check the respective admissions websites of the colleges closer to the decision date in case there are any updates. Good luck with your applications!
