When will I hear back about my spring 2018 application?

I applied to four cunys as a transfer in May. City, Hunter, Lehman, and Brooklyn. I heard you normally hear back from colleges in October-November when you apply for spring. Is this true? Even if I applied extremely early, is there anyway I would get an answer by September?

It ranges from institution to institution, but decision notifications usually come around that time. One would assume that if you apply early, you’d get your decision early (or at least earlier than everybody else), though with college admissions, it’s tough to tell.

You could always call a couple of those CUNY schools and ask when they usually release decisions for Spring transfers.

Is there any particular reason as to why you would want an answer by September?
