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 2026. Lehigh tells Early Decision I applicants to expect an answer by mid-December, and that is where it landed last cycle.
Early Decision II
Early Decision II isn't announced yet — expect February 2027. Lehigh tells Early Decision II applicants to expect an answer by mid-February.
Regular Decision
Regular Decision isn't announced yet — expect March 2027. Lehigh's Regular Decision has been landing in the second half of March — last cycle it came on March 18.
