The Binding Early Decision Program deadline is December 1. We begin accepting applications in September. Decisions are released on a rolling basis beginning in late November. After the priority deadline, we continue to accept applications until July 1 and review applications in the order they are received.
When Do College Acceptance Letters Arrive, Generally? First off, when do college acceptance letters arrive, broadly speaking? While the answer to this question really depends on what colleges you're applying to, in general most decisions come out in the springtime, that is, in either March or early April.
Students usually receive acceptance letters through traditional mail, email, or as an update on your college application portal set up by the college. When applying to schools, keep track of how the school handles this process.
There's also a little bit of variation in how decisions are conveyed: you can expect many colleges to send acceptance letters by email or online portal, though some will still send a formal letter in your mailbox, too.
It can take a few weeks to a few months to hear back for a college admissions decision, depending on the type of application you submitted. Early applicants — such as early decision or early action — will generally hear back in December while regular decision applicants will receive their admission decision in April.
How do I know if I've been accepted to college? Hang in there—you'll know soon enough! Colleges that accept you will usually notify you of your acceptance between mid-March and mid-April, either through an email or as an update on your college application portal.
There are three ways you'll receive your letter of acceptance: by mail, email, or on your online portal. How schools choose to tell students about their university entry will vary. Check with your school's office of admissions to see when and how you'll get your letter of acceptance.
Although most colleges will send an acceptance letter in the mail, that isn't the only way you'll receive your college acceptance letter. In addition to mailing college acceptance letters, colleges and universities will also notify you virtually.
