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 December 2026. Houston answers first-year applications as they are completed, starting in October for the following fall; November 2 is the scholarship priority date.
Where to check
Decisions post to the applicant portal, not your inbox — the email just says the portal updated. Check yours at accessuh.uh.edu.
Official timing straight from the school: Houston admissions.
The clock at Houston starts when your supporting documents land, not when you submit — transcripts and test scores have their own deadline a week after the application one, and nothing is read until they arrive.
