Hey everyone! I didn’t see a thread for Northeastern’s EA Class of 2022 applicants, so I thought I’d start one! Does anyone know when the decision results for EA are supposed to come out?

and the wait begins!
i think in past years EA students can start hearing in Dec, and all EA are notified by Feb 1

The EA decision date changed this year. Before it was guaranteed by the end of December. I would not suspect many, if any, decisions before Feb 1, though it is possible they are released in late January.
Uhhhh thats a bit longer than I was hoping. Guess Ill graduate h.s. in June before I know where Im going sarcasm 
This is of course to benefit NEU since they added EDII. They can see what the EDII pool looks like since the EDII deadline is 1/1. Then they can accept a huge percentage of those students, and then the more qualified EA kids to fill the gaps. They are clearly trying to improve yield and filter out students using NEU as a safety. I’m guessing EA admit rates will go down.
has anyone heard back??
EA students will have to wait. They have not released ED I results yet and EA will not come before that.
ED 1 decision are out! Hopefully early action follows soon!
I applied EA and decision date is 2/1. Is there any benefit of changing to ED II if I find out by 1/1 I don’t get into my top choice? ED II decisions come out after EA. Seems like I should keep EA. Does that make sense?
the wait is killing me!!! i hope they release it next week

Next week @Mariama28? No, that’s not going to happen. The EDs got released only few days ago! EA applicants won’t hear anything in December I’m afraid.
It depends on your profile @BCBoundMaybe. If you have a very strong profile you could remain with EA. If your profile is not way above average for NE and NE is your absolute dream school, you could consider switching to ED2.
@WilliamNYC they have had our applications for the last month so it would only be sensible to release the EA around next week or so.
They haven’t done much with our applications so far as their attention was on their ED applications @Mariama28 . I doubt very much we will get EA decisions next week or before January. Before they make EA decisions, I imagine they also would want to peak at their ED2 pool and see what’s happening there now that students might have gotten negative ED news from Ivy leagues.
@Mariama28 Northeastern does not do rolling admission. It is stated on their website that EA decisions will be out by February 1. So they will likely come out in mid-January.
so like i just checked my email from my original application for EA and it says we’d know by January 15 yet their website says Feb 1. But if the email says Jan 15 I’ll roll with that. Guess we’ll have to see
My son’s original email says he will find out by Feb 1.
