Hi all, I applied to a couple of colleges for early admission, but I'm a little unsure about when the decisions usually come out. Is there a general timeline for these decisions, or does it vary depending on the school? Any information would be appreciated!
Hi, Early Admission decisions typically come out in mid-December, but the exact date can vary depending on the school. Most colleges have their own specific release dates, and some may announce their decision releases a few days or weeks in advance, while others might have set dates that can be found on their website or admission portal.
It's important to keep an eye on your email and the college's social media accounts, as updates regarding decision release timings might be sent out through these channels. You can also check each college's admissions page for more detailed information on their decision release schedules.
Remember that if you applied Early Decision (ED), the decision is binding, and you must commit to the school if you are accepted. If you applied Early Action (EA), your decision is non-binding, giving you the flexibility to choose from other schools that you may have applied to during the Regular Decision (RD) cycle. Good luck with your applications and fingers crossed for positive news!
