Where to check

Decisions post to the applicant portal, not your inbox — the email just says the portal updated. Check yours at admissions.brandeis.edu.

Official timing straight from the school: Brandeis admissions.

Brandeis offers binding Early Decision in two rounds and no Early Action, and it frames both early dates as promises — decisions land on or before the day published.
