Many schools say “mid-January” for decisions. I always watch the admissions topics here for our home state flagship, UMass Amherst. They say mid-January, but they always roll out the decisions in seemingly random waves. Parents, and I’m sure students, get worked up because some OOS decisions are released, some majors are released, then there are some in-state releases. Everyone wonders aloud about Isenberg, or CS decision release dates. As long as JMU hits their mid-January target, AND releases all EA decisions within a 24 hour period, I’ll be perfectly happy. Random waves would drive me batty.

Pretty sure–historically–all EA decisions are mass loaded into the MyMadison portal same day and same time. So, I don’t think it will waves–but one tsunami…probably break the server! HAHAHA! Once that first message goes up here or like in some school’s cases the post like UVA or VA Tech that “All ED decision will be posted after 5pm”…those portals will explode.

For my partners in crime here…you may want to check decisions via cell phone. In previous years mobile access has been more successful when the server gets slammed.

what time do they normally post the notification? 3pm ? 4 pm? also hope it is today!
i’ve heard 3pm even though i was looking at threads last year and some people got decisions at like 2:40 pm? i really hope it’s today.

I just feel like it will be Friday for some reason? CNU was early. We found out last week for them.

It really is not. UVA and VA Tech are the same. We are awaiting those decisions in Feburay.

They have been particularly quiet today on Instagram. I still think tomorrow or Friday.

i was hoping them being quiet today meant that they would post decisons since yesterday they posted so much on their story and no decisions. the waiting is awful

Yes! When I noticed how quiet they were today I was convinced today was the day! Not giving up home until after 6!

For some weird reason, (probably historical data) I’ve had today on my calendar for months as “JMU Decision Day”- I hope I was right
