<p>^^ Although the article is dated, the end result is still the same. Once a student has been accepted ED, there are two options:</p>
<p>a) Accept the offer. Send in a deposit by the deadline, which is usually within several weeks. Notify your high school of the ED acceptance and immediately rescind all other applications from all other colleges and agree not to apply to additional schools.</p>
<p>b) Decline the ED offer (for whatever reason) and move on.</p>
