Hi! I'm thinking about applying early decision to Dartmouth. When do they usually notify applicants of their decisions? I'm lowkey stressed about having to wait for the results.
Hi there! I understand that waiting for college decisions can be nerve-racking. For Dartmouth, Early Decision applicants typically receive their decisions in mid-December. Although the specific date may vary slightly each year, you can expect to hear back around that time. In the meantime, try to focus on other aspects of your life, such as finishing up your senior year strong and spending time with friends and family.
