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. Mississippi State reviews applications as they are completed and says it takes 10 to 15 days after the last required materials arrive to notify you.
