This college process is getting really stressful! Does anyone know when most colleges send out their decision letters? I applied to several places, and it's driving me nuts waiting for a response. Thanks for the help!
Sure, I can give you a general timeline for college decisions, but remember that exact dates can vary by institution. Typically, colleges release their Regular Decision (RD) notifications in late March to early April. For Early Decision (ED) or Early Action (EA) applications, the decisions often come out in mid-December. Keep in mind some schools may also have a second round of ED (ED II), and those decisions are usually announced in February.
You can always check the specific timelines for each college on their admissions website or in the application portal. This is the best way to get accurate information on when your decisions will be released.
And remember, waiting for college decisions can be nerve-wracking, but try not to let the anticipation get to you. As long as you've submitted everything on time, you've done your part. Use this waiting time to focus on your current classes and enjoying your senior year. Regardless of the outcome, know that you'll end up where you're meant to be. All the best!
