<p>according to this website the notification date is December 17th, is this accurate?</p>

<p>We do not yet know when we will release admissions decisions for EA applicants. I believe the Princeton review site is noting the date of decision release from a prior year. I will certainly post here when we know when we will be releasing admissions decisions.</p>
<p>okay thanks!</p>
<p>Fwiw, last year a freak east coast Halloween storm also resulted in an extended EA deadline, and that, probably combined with the huge increase in EA applications, resulted in a decision date of December 19th which iirc was only announced about 7-10 days before (last year that was a Monday, making for a veeeery long prior weekend). Both conditions (storm-related extension and massive increase in EA apps) recurred this year, so you might want to prepare for a later-than-expected decision date and then be pleasantly surprised if it’s earlier.</p>
