Hey folks, junior here. Been hearing some mixed information regarding Syracuse University's admissions process. Can anyone confirm if they use a rolling admissions policy? Thanks for any info!
Syracuse University does not operate on a rolling admissions basis. Instead, they offer three types of decision plans: Early Decision I, Early Decision II, and Regular Decision.
Early Decision I is a binding agreement and the deadline is usually around November 15. If you're accepted, you have committed to attend Syracuse. Early Decision II has a similar premise, but with a deadline of January 1, providing an opportunity for those who perhaps decide later in the process that Syracuse is their top choice.
Regular Decision, typically with a deadline of January 1, is non-binding. You'll hear back from Syracuse in late March to early April, giving you until May 1 to decide whether or not to accept the offer of admission.
Remember, it's best to keep track of specific dates as they can slightly change from year to year. Good luck with your application process!
