Expected
Regular Decision
- Feb 28 ’26
Dates marked announced come from the college itself, with the announcement linked. Dates marked expected rest on the evidence named right next to the date — that college's own release history or the timeline its admissions office publishes — and the label switches to announced only when the college says so.
Regular Decision
Regular Decision isn't announced yet — expect March 2027. CSULB's own wording is that offers of admission are normally made in March; last cycle the main wave started February 28.
