It's once a month. You should go to the College Confidential board to see the anticipated release dates.

Last year they released a few decisions (acceptances) on March 5th. The rest of the decisions (acceptances, waitlists and rejections) came on March 26.

He got email saying we have everything to review your application if he is still interested to let them know. There was a link and he clicked yes. Sunday he received another email asking for LOCI or new information if any. Email mentioned it is voluntary and not required to review his RD application. This is strange. Anyone else in same situation.

OP. Did your DC submit the LOCI? If so, has he received a decision?

I mean it makes sense. Not sure why anyone would apply RD when schools have EA. This probably also distinguishes applicants who just apply to a bunch of schools without intent.

It becomes challenging for a 17yr old to write all the essays, take AP classes, work part time and focus on EC. EA deadline comes pretty fast.
