美国研究生申请分为提前申请和常规申请，对应的录取时间也有区别：
一、提前申请时间
提前申请在11月截止，结果一般会在12月和1月出来，提前申请可以提前享受到学校的录取待遇，但也意味着如果学生申请了某个学校的提前申请，就不能再接受其他学校的录取。提前申请的优势是录取标准要比常规申请低一些，尤其是名校，标准差别很明显，但是由于录取的排他性，很多学生并不愿意选择提前申请。
二、常规申请时间
常规申请的学生，截止日期一般在12月底1月初，最快拿到录取的时间是次年的2月，但大部分拿到录取集中在3月，还有一部分4月会发放。还有一些排名比较靠后的学校，本身申请截止日期就很晚，有的3、4月依然可以申请，这些学校拿到录取的时间会更晚，6月、7月都有可能，当然开学时间也会随着往后延迟。而滚动录取的学校，不存在申请截止日期和录取时间的说法，任何时间都可以申请和录取。
三、录取时间按专业有所区别
像mba、msf、macc，大多数学校分为几轮审理期，第一轮的申请截止日期一般在10月中旬，可能11月份到12月份就有录取结果了，比如说有学生在11月中旬的时候就顺利拿到了杜克大学管理硕士的录取，罗彻斯特大学金融数学硕士的录取，圣路易斯华盛顿大学会计硕士的录取等。当然，也有部分学校结果出来的比较晚，很典型的就是ut austin的会计硕士，预计3月份中旬左右才有第一结果出来。
