While some colleges jump the gun at times and others can be slower than expected to release notifications, these dates will give you a pretty good idea of when you should expect to hear from the colleges to which you submitted applications.

As a rule of thumb, most Early Decision I notifications are sent out around mid-December 2023. Early Action notifications tend to come out sometime between mid-December 2023 and late January 2024. Early Decision II notifications tend to be released in mid to late-February 2024. Regular Decision notifications generally go out between mid-March to April 1, 2024. And still other schools offer rolling admissions in which decisions tend to go out about four to six weeks after submitting an application.

Difference Between Early Decision I, Early Decision II, and Early Action
As you’ll note from the above charts, some schools offer Early Decision and Regular Decision, others Early Decision I and II along with Regular Decision, others Early Decision I and II, Early Action, and Regular Decision, others Early Action and Regular Decision, and others just Regular Decision. Early Decision is a binding policy under which students are obliged to enroll if admitted. The difference between Early Decision I and II is the deadlines by which students must apply (it also is easier to get in through Early Decision I than through Early Decision II). Early Action is a non-binding policy under which students must let the college know where they intend to enroll by May 1, 2024.
What to Do While You Wait
Many students often wonder what they should do while they await decisions. But unless the college specifically requests material (e.g., first-quarter or mid-year grades), there’s nothing for students to do. Suppose an alum of a school reaches out to them for an interview. In that case, the student should seize that opportunity (securing an alumni interview isn’t an indication of one’s chances but instead of the availability of alumni interviewers in the student’s area to meet). But beyond doing the alumni interview, there’s nothing to do. Students should not be sending in unrequested updates to the colleges (unless it’s a meaningful update, like Regeneron Science Talent Search semi-finalist). They should not be pestering admissions officers as they’re in the crux of reading season.
