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.
Early Action
Early Action isn't announced yet — expect January 2027. UMass tells November 5 Early Action applicants their decisions will be released by the end of January, in batches rather than all on one day.
Regular Decision
Regular Decision isn't announced yet — expect March 2027. UMass says Regular Decision notifications go out by the end of March for fall applicants.
Where to check
Decisions post to the applicant portal, not your inbox — the email just says the portal updated.
Official timing straight from the school: UMass admissions.
UMass releases in batches rather than one drop, and says so plainly — an empty portal while classmates are posting results usually means a later batch, not bad news.
