When do EA decisions typically come out?

Hey everybody, I applied to a few colleges through Early Action and I'm getting anxious about it. When do Early Action decisions usually come out? Does it vary by school or is there a common timeline? Thanks in advance!

Hi there! Early Action decisions can indeed vary by school, but generally, they tend to come out in mid-December. Some schools release decisions on a specific date every year, while others have a more flexible timeline within that mid-December timeframe.

If you want to get a more accurate idea of when EA decisions will be released, you can check each college's admissions website for updates or announcements. Sometimes, schools will post these details on their social media accounts as well. Additionally, you could also try reaching out to the college admissions offices directly to inquire about the decision release date. They may not give you an exact date, but they could potentially provide you with a more specific timeframe.

Remember that these dates are subject to change, and some schools may follow a slightly different timeline, so it's a good idea to keep an eye on your email and the college's website for any updates. Good luck, and I hope you receive good news soon!
