When does Harvard usually release its REA decisions?

Hey guys, I applied to Harvard under the Restrictive Early Action (R.E.A) plan. I'm a bit anxious about the decision, so I'm just curious about when they typically release their decisions. Any info would be super helpful! Thanks in advance.

Harvard University typically releases its Restrictive Early Action (REA) decisions around mid-December. While the exact day can vary from year to year, it's usually been around the second week of December. When the decision is ready, you will receive an email notification to check your applicant portal, where the status update will be posted. It's understandably a nerve-wracking time as you wait!

Remember, irrespective of the outcome, applying REA shows initiative and a clear interest in the school, which is commendable. Good luck with your application–I hope you receive good news!
