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.
Early Decision I
Early Decision I isn't announced yet — expect December 15, 2026 (Tuesday). Holy Cross lists December 15 as its Early Decision I notification day, and that is exactly when last cycle's decisions posted.
