What time do early decision results come out?

Hey guys, I'm applying to a few schools for early decision and I'm pretty nervous about when the results will be released. Does anyone know if there is a specific time or date that most schools release their early decision results? All help is appreciated, thank you!

Hello! I understand how nerve-wracking the wait for early decision results can be. Generally, early decision notifications are released in mid-December, but the dates can vary from one college to another. It's best to check each college's website for their specific timeline; many schools will mention the exact date or an approximate time frame when they plan to release results.

One thing to note is that there might not be a specific time of day when the results are released. Some schools might send them during normal business hours, while others might release them late in the evening. The mode of communication can also vary; some schools might email you, while others might require you to log in to the college's admissions portal for the decision.

You can consider signing up for the colleges' social media accounts or joining their community forums, as these platforms may provide advance notice of when decisions are being released.

Try not to stress too much! It's great to be informed about the decision release dates, but try to fill the waiting time with activities that keep your mind off the application status. Good luck with your early decision applications!
