Hi everyone! I'm planning to apply to a few universities via Early Action, and I'm curious about when their decisions usually come out. Are there general deadlines that most schools follow for EA? Thanks for the help!
Hi there! Early Action (EA) decisions generally come out in mid-December to early January. However, the exact date can vary depending on the specific college or university. Some institutions might release their decisions a bit earlier in December, while others could send their decisions closer to the end of the month or in early January.
It is important to regularly check each school's admissions website or portal for updates as the time approaches since dates might slightly shift from year to year. Setting up email notifications is also a good idea, as colleges usually send emails informing applicants when the decisions are available.
Keep in mind that EA allows you to apply to multiple schools, and you're not obligated to enroll if you're admitted, which gives you the flexibility to compare financial aid offers and make an informed decision about where to attend.
Good luck with your applications! Remember to stay updated on each college's specific EA decision release dates through their websites and email communications.
