On the Spot Decision

UMass Dartmouth admissions counselors are visiting you at your high school and can make a decision on the spot for you if your application is in!  Contact your admissions counselor today to see if we can visit your high school for an on the spot decision.

Here’s all you need to do before your appointment: 

1. apply via the Common App
2. email your transcript with the subject line "Instant Decision"
   • first-year applicants: email hkhamis@umassd.edu
   • international applicants: email tina.rong@umassd.edu
   • transfer applicants: email dstevens@umassd.edu
3. complete your FAFSA

No time to finish your application before the appointment? We’ll still be able to give you a preliminary decision.

Decisions are made on the assumption that if you apply after the session with the same information provided in the on-the-spot session, the decision will be honored. 

Note: We are unable to offer Instant Decision events for graduate and online applicants.
