Regular Decision Process

Important note: In order for your application to be considered for Regular Decision, you may need to contact the admissions offices of the colleges to which you intend to apply. Refer to the table of instructions below.

Students who have ranked and completed the required materials for the University of Chicago, Columbia University, the University of Pennsylvania, Princeton University, and/or Stanford University will automatically be considered for Regular Decision. There is no need to contact their admissions offices. If you have ranked and submitted your materials to any of those colleges but do not wish to be considered for Regular Decision, you will need to contact the appropriate admissions offices to withdraw your application.

At this stage, it is important to note that you will still need to review the respective colleges' admissions processes and requirements and adhere to their deadlines and policies.
