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. Tufts' deadlines page says Early Decision I applicants hear in mid-December.
Early Decision II
Early Decision II isn't announced yet — expect February 2027. The deadlines page says Early Decision II applicants hear in early February.
Regular Decision
Regular Decision isn't announced yet — expect March 2027. Tufts promises Regular Decision by April 1, but it lands earlier — last cycle decisions posted March 19 at 7 p.m. Eastern.

Where to check
Decisions post to the applicant portal, not your inbox — the email just says the portal updated. Check yours at ugrad.admissions.tufts.edu.
Official timing straight from the school: Tufts admissions.
Tufts describes its notification timing in windows rather than exact days, and Regular Decision has consistently arrived well before the April 1 promise — in the evening, all at once.
