Hey guys, I'm currently a junior and I'm starting to think about my college applications. I'm particularly interested in applying to Ivy League schools and I was wondering if any of you could shed some light on when these schools usually release their decisions. I can't seem to find a specific date. Thanks a lot!
Hello! Ivy League schools, like other colleges and universities, typically follow a specific timeline for releasing their admissions decisions. While the exact dates may vary slightly from year to year, you can generally anticipate a specific window based on the type of decision.
If you apply to Ivy League schools through the Early Action or Early Decision plans, you can typically expect a decision by mid-December. If you apply Regular Decision, you'll likely receive your decisions in late March or early April. Specifically, most Ivy League schools stick to "Ivy Day" for releasing Regular Decision, which is usually the last Thursday or Friday of March.
It's always best to check with the individual school's admissions office or website to confirm the dates as they may slightly differ each year. Good luck with your applications!
