Official Class of 2021 Northeastern University Early Decision/Early Action Discussion

For early decision, wasn’t it after the window of time most people thought anyway?

I dare all of you to not write anything here and stay out of this site to keep sane lulz

Correct me if I’m wrong, but haven’t EA decisions historically release a week after ED? I feel like that’s enough evidence that the release will most likely be today.

Yes… people in this discussion predicted correctly for the ED release, so I assume they will be right for this EA release as well.

My son was accepted EA last year. Decision came out exactly 1 week after ED. We live in Mass. and the email arrived here at 4:00 almost exactly. Hang in there!

Does anyone think that because EDs were out at 8pm EST will effect the timing of today’s releases?

Would it really be that difficult for them to post a date and time? So many schools do…

Good luck everyone! I remember this wait from last year. Don’t be discouraged if you get deferred to the regular decision pool.

I applied to northeastern EA. Could someone let me know if decisions actually do come out today?

Also, do we have to log into our account to see or will they just send us an email?

@ehankis No one knows for sure, but we will know in 10 minutes, at 4:00

@LkL5789 Especially because they defer almost everyone, which is incredibly, incredibly annoying. I feel like they should get rid of the EA time frame and have a single RD deadline of December 1, it would get rid of all this deferral BS…

Last year my son got an email telling him to log into his northeastern portal.

You will get an email, but it might be slightly delayed. It could be better just to check on your app status on their website every hour.

it’s every hour?

If I live in NJ and decisions do come out today, what time approximately will they reach me if not 4?

@nchen17 Jersey could be as late as 6-8PM unfortunately. 4-5PM is usually Mass and some direct neighbors.

To all: Decisions radiate out from Boston geographically, on the hour. Most will hear around 7-8PM their local time, with some in the northeast hearing sooner. All decisions come out on the same day, so once we have confirmation of a first wave, the rest are coming.

Nothing. I guess it’s tomorrow

give it some time
