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
Early Decision isn't announced yet — expect December 2026. Williams sends Early Decision in mid-December — last cycle's decisions posted the evening of December 12.

Where to check
Decisions post to the applicant portal, not your inbox — the email just says the portal updated. Check yours at myadmission.williams.edu.
Official timing straight from the school: Williams admissions.
Williams runs one binding Early Decision round and Regular Decision, and both releases have landed in the evening rather than during the school day.
