Applying for Early Action & Regular?

<p>Is it possible to do both?</p>

<p>To the same school? No. EA to some and regular decision to others? Absolutely.</p>

<p>Not to the same school. If you apply EA and are deferred, you will be reevaluated in the regular admissions round</p>

<p>Thanks guys … I only get my results at the end of January, looks like I can’t apply for either EA or ED then. =/</p>

<p>What results are you waiting for? If it is midterm/semester grades you don’t need to wait for them. EA apps are evaluated based on grades 9-11. If the adcoms who evaluate you EA believe they need to see another semester of grades they will defer to you RD. </p>

<p>If you won’t have required test scores by the EA deadline, that is a problem.</p>

<p>Oh, so if my “grade 11” results are not good enough, they send me over to RD?
I’m international as well, I have to submit my A Level results… Don’t know if that changes anything</p>

<p>International is really a different thing and you probably need specific int’l advice. But, a lot of cc posters are internationals who are applying ED at selective schools, so I can’t imagine you have to wait. There are some selective schools that seem to give away a lot of their available international aid in the ED round.</p>

<p>I won’t be taking out aid though …</p>

<p>So as an International student, I get an advantage over regulars when applying ED/EA?</p>

<p>That totally depends on the school and varies quite a lot from one institution to the other.</p>
