<p>In the fall I applied to four colleges. One application was through an Early Decision program. In December I was accepted to my Early Decision school. Adhering to the Early Decision agreement, I called/emailed my other three schools and requested that my application be withdrawn.</p>
<p>Today, I received an acceptance package from one of the other three schools. I distinctly remember calling the school, talking to someone in the admissions office and being assured that my application would be withdrawn. </p>
<p>Is this going to be a problem? Is there something I should do? If it matters at all, I already submitted a commitment card to my Early Decision school. There's no reason for them to think I won't be matriculating.</p>
<p>Inform the recent school that you had previously withdrawn your app and you won’t need their slot since you’re a Brown ED acceptee. Brown won’t be bugged by it since you followed the rules</p>
<p>Happens all the time. (I think that some schools do it on purpose bcos they want to add your stats to their “accepted” pile.) But in any event, just pen a short letter to #2 reminding them that you called back in December to withdraw your app bcos you had been accepted ED elsewhere. Thank them for their interest.</p>
<p>Brown distinctly wrote in their ED requirements that you could NOT apply to anywhere else…not EA, not SCEA…although yes, you could apply to a school if they offer rolling decision. Here’s hoping this is a school offering rolling decisions!</p>
<p>lima: Jack applied to other schools along with ED Brown. Once Brown accepted him, he withdrew the outstanding apps. If one applies ED, he/she isn’t *prohibited *from sending in other apps – the contract enjoins them to withdraw them if an acceptances is granted. Jack did fine.</p>
<p>I applied to regular decision for all three other schools. I know, without a doubt, that my application to the school was not in violation of Brown’s Early Decision agreement.</p>
<p>I was just worried about what consequences this school’s mixup could have for me, but it looks like none. Thank you bluebayou and T26E4.</p>
<p>^Your application wasn’t, but not withdrawing it once you found out about Brown would have been. Luckily, you followed the necessary procedure and there was just a blip in the system.</p>
<p>Send them a quick email or make a call to let them know you withdrew your application in December and will happily be attending there.</p>
