Hey everyone! I've seen some posts on here mentioning Ivy Day and I'm a bit lost. When exactly is Ivy Day for the Class of 2024? Also, what's the significance behind the term 'Ivy Day'? Thanks!
Ivy Day is the term used to describe the day when all eight Ivy League universities release their regular decision (RD) admissions results. For the Class of 2024, Ivy Day is on March 26th, 2024. On this day, applicants who have applied to one or more Ivy League schools will receive the final admissions decision from those schools.
The term "Ivy Day" is significant because it represents a high-stakes day for applicants who are hoping to gain admission to some of the most prestigious and selective schools in the United States. Since the Ivy League schools include Brown, Columbia, Cornell, Dartmouth, Harvard, Penn, Princeton, and Yale, many students regard their admissions decisions on Ivy Day as a milestone and culmination of their college application journey. It's important to note that while this is a big day for many students, it's just one step in the overall college admissions process, and there are many other fantastic colleges and universities that offer excellent opportunities for higher education.
