Instant Decision Day

Hello Seniors, This fall, Emmaus is hosting multiple universities for an Instant Decision Day. An Instant Decision Day, also known as an On-Site Decision Day, is an event where students are able to receive an immediate admissions decision from a college or university. Instant decisions are non-binding, you are still able to apply to other colleges to look at different options! If you are interested in attending one of these events, please click the link on the college or university that you would like to sign up for. You MUST complete the google form that is linked below to the universities as well as submit an application to the university itself. Once you have signed up for one or multiple Instant Decision Days you will receive an email confirmation and more information will be emailed to you as the event date approaches. Please only use your school email when signing up. Below are the available Instant Decision Days to sign up for. Good luck!
