Expected
Regular Decision
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 November 2026. GCU has no application deadline for most programs and reviews files as they arrive, so a decision follows soon after the application is complete rather than on a set day.
Where to check
Decisions post to the applicant portal, not your inbox — the email just says the portal updated. Check yours at apply.gcu.edu.
Official timing straight from the school: GCU admissions.
GCU is one of the fastest turnarounds on this list: there is no deadline for most programs, applications are read as they arrive, and you can apply as early as the end of junior year.
